Backstage Bar & Billiards’ name originates from literally being backstage to the adjoining Fremont Country Club, a premier music venue slated to open at the 601 Fremont St. building in early 2013.
Triple B’s eclectic décor includes custom furniture by rock outfitter Anvil Cases, original print concert posters from some of the most famous concerts in the history of rock ‘n’ roll and the “turntable library” covering eight decades. DJ Lethal (co-owner and resident DJ) has collected and contributed a half-million dollars’ worth of memorabilia and legendary concerts are shown on a “Smorgasbord” of visual formats, showcased by an 8-foot-by-20-foot movie screen theater behind the bar.
“The state-of-the-art DJ stage features a bookcase backdrop housing 10,000 pieces of vinyl as a library for all DJs to use,” co-owner Ava Berman says. “We also have the only exclusive VIP room in the downtown entertainment district for our special guests to use for private parties and events.”
Backstage Bar & Billiards opened in late 2012.
