Venue notes: Velvet Underground, Oklahoma City OKDefunct punk club. G. Lynn, who attended the 01 May 1986 Hüsker Dü show here, describes the place as a "tiny basement club with an eight-foot ceiling. ... The club did not last longer than a year or so. I think the reason they played there is that the other good venue in town had just closed. It was an old church called The Bowery, and was the site of another Minneapolis band's infamous show -- it's where the Mats recorded their The Shit Hits The Fans cover set bootleg."[Do you have more information about this venue?
