A dinner reservation for a partially seated event (PSTO) does not guarantee a seat for the show
Dinner is not included in ticket price.
Unfortunately we cannot refund tickets unless we or the artist cancel the show, but please check in with us as many times we have a waiting list of guests who want to come to the show and could not get tickets. We can get you in contact with them!!
We now present three types of shows, fully seated shows for those intimate evenings, partially seated shows (PSTO) and standing room only shows (STO). See below for more information about the three different types of shows, there will be an indicator in the show title to highlight our partially seated and standing shows, our seated shows will have no indicator on them.
SEATED SHOWS
Our seated shows are not assigned seating, the benefit of joining us for dinner allows you to get first dibs on seating! The seated shows will have no indicator in the title.
STANDING ROOM ONLY (STO)/PARTIALLY SEATED (PSTO) SHOWS
We have started to present Standing Room Only and Partially Seated shows as well. Our standing room shows will be identified with "STO" in the event description, our partially seated shows will be identified with "PSTO" in the event description. If you would like a seat for a partially seated show please email neatmusicandcoffee@gmail.com to let us know.
Show Time is 8pm.
You can select "Ticket Only" which ensures you are on the guest list for the show only, you can arrive anytime after 7pm. Alternatively you can use the drop down menu to select "Ticket with Dinner Reservation", this option secures a table for dinning that night and also ensures you are on the guest list for the show. For dinner you are welcome anytime in between 530 and 645, if you are interested in the back end specials it is always wise to show up and 6 or before since they tend to sell out first.

Paul Collins
Rock icon and cult favourite Paul Collins got his start with Peter Case and Jack Lee in 1974. Their band The Nerves toured with The Ramones and recorded a song called “Hanging On The Telephone.” The song would later become a hit when covered by Deborah Harry and Blondie on the Parallel Lines album.
Paul Collins formed The Beat in 1977, recruiting members of various rock bands including Steven Huff, Larry Whitman, Dennis Conway and Michael Ruiz. The result was The Beat, a high energy rock group in the style of The Ramones, Blondie and The Dictators. As the story goes, Collins was awarded a record deal with CBS thanks to his friend Eddie Money and Bill Graham Management. The Beat played with many bands, including The Jam, Pere Ubu, The Police, Eddie Money, The Plimsouls and Huey Lewis. The Beat became Paul Collins’ Beat when a ska band from UK began using The Beat as their moniker.
Paul Collins’ Beat continued to tour and record albums throughout the ’80s, with The Kids Are The Same, Beat Or Not To Beat, Long Time Gone, Live At Universal and their final album One Night, released in 1989. Paul Collins set out on a solo career, recording the self-titled Paul Collins album in 1992. This country/rock album included special guests such as Greg Kihn, Cyril Jordan (from Flamin Groovies), Jeff Trott (Sheryl Crow), Chuck Prophet, Dave Immergluck (Counting Crows) and key members of Chris Isaak’s band. 1993 brought the sophomore release by Paul Collins Band, entitled From Town To Town. This album was released by Caroline Records and featured a country rock sound similar to The Byrds.
A new version of the band Paul Collins’ Beat surfaced more recently and resulted in an album of new material entitled Flying High. Considered to be their best to date, Flying High is a solid record, done half acoustic and half electric. The album gets back to the classic sound of The Beat, while combining the raw energy of Collins’ solo works. In 2004 Collins recorded Ribbon of Gold with Chips Kiesby (Helicopters & Nomads) using the Spanish band (Vinck, Lopez & Cabanes). In 2008 Collins moved back to his native New York and recorded King of Power Pop and Feel The Noise with Jim Diamond (White Stripes) in Detroit, followed by the self-produced Out of My Head in 2018, all released on Alive Naturalsound Records.
