Johnson says that Wasted Grain will start having a greater focus on live music. And that will be evident at the anniversary party.” But we're right there on the corner and a focal point of this part of Scottsdale, so we wanted to draw some more attention to ourselves. “We never really capitalized on the curb appeal of the place like some of the other clubs in Old Town. "There's a huge lighting package that's going to light the place up almost like the Griswolds' place in Christmas Vacation," he says. Meanwhile, Johnson says new and enormous lighting setup will illuminate the Wasted Grain's exterior starting this weekend. In the 100 Proof Lounge on the second floor, for instance, new artwork and a few minor renovations will be in place. Steve Dykes Johnson says that Wasted Grain will also sport a little bit of a new look both inside and out, courtesy of some cosmetic upgrades that have been made in honor of the anniversary. There will also be an an extended premises with the party stretching into Wasted Grain’s parking lot, as well as prizes, giveaways, and drink specials. The festivities will run three straight nights, with a mix of DJs and live acts each evening, including Z-Trip on Friday, Phunk Junkeez and The Black Moods on Saturday, and Too Short on Sunday. It’s an achievement worth celebrating, which Johnson will be doing along with the venue’s regulars (and hundreds of live music fans) during Wasted Grain’s Three-Year Anniversary celebration this weekend.

“We’ve been through a lot,” Johnson says, “But we’ve made it work and managed to stick around.” The sprawling Stetson Drive bar and music venue, which debuted in 2014, is not only surviving the fickle Scottsdale scene but is thriving after its first three years of existence.Īnd according to Jason Johnson, Wasted Grain’s director of operations, it’s been a hectic stretch that’s encompassed both highs (such as big gigs by Snoop Dogg and Too Short) and lows (including the death of his business partner Michael Stravers earlier this year) for the venue. There are exceptions to the rule, of course, and Wasted Grain is definitely looking like it’s one of ’em.
