treating a bar

I am working at a place that is horribly noisy. The walls are all hard surfaces, and the stage is in a corner. I feel like the corner stage is working like a horn, and pushing the sound out. I have gotten a curtain up around the corner, and that does dampen the highs a touch, but I am looking to find a solution(or at least improvement) to the issue.

Compressor with no preamp?

Is it really necessary to connect a mic through a preamp first if a dbx 106A is next in line in the chain? I'm just recording guitar and vocals for home demos. I know an Avalon preamp would sound great but I don't have money to burn. I really don't want to buy an Audio Buddy either if it's not gonna be noticeable if I connect straight into a dbx 160A.
