I created this article after following a red link on the Minneapolis-St.Paul article. The "Caves" are a notable social venue in the Twin Cities especially for its swing night. I notice that the Target Center is a page in Wikipedia. The Wabasha Street Caves are the same sort of venue. Smaller, granted, but of great importance in the Swing dancing community in the Twin Cities. This article should stay and be expanded (by me or someone else).

I am curious as to what would constitute a proper source to prove that a venue exists. Such a thing would be rather difficult to fabricate, and so I would think that the venue's own website would serve as such a source. Harperska 10:59, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

I added the "Cave" infobox (though it's barely appropriate for such a manufactured cave). There are a number of caves, both natural and unnatural in the sandstone along the south side of the Mississippi river through St. Paul (all the way to Mendota, MN), where the Minnesota River terminates into the Mississippi. Along with the note from others, it's difficult to verify a venue, as a venue. The STUB warning, should remain though, until some sort of /PROPER/ source for the 'gangster' and 'speakeasy' notes are. 75.73.148.241 01:44, 30 April 2007 (UTC) (My name is Gary Allen Vollink)
