    When in LA a great music venue to visit, go doing the week and enter is the cost of a couple drinks. The drinks aren't cheap but considering you get a live band no complaints

    One of LA's legendary concert joints, particularly known for good ole' rock'n'roll and worthy of its reputation.

    A legendary live music club on LA's famed Sunset Blvd. Great live sound and professional staff. Backline is excellent here so don't fear bringing your guitar and plugging right into the house gear!

    No longer owned by Johnny Depp, this nightclub remains a popular destination for live-music fans. Sadly, River Phoenix died outside on Halloween 1993. Check out the intimate lounge downstairs. 21+ Read more

    Be nice to the guy at the door (usually Joe) and the gal in the box (usually Rita); they are beautiful assets to Viper and will take none of your shit.

    This club is so dark it feels like it’s always nighttime, even if you’re in there at 11am (which we have been). Perfect for checking out up-and-comers up close and personal. Read more

    With a famous owner, Johnny Depp and a spot on the Sunset strip, it's a pretty cool club. Steer clear of the overpriced, watered down mixed drinks. Instead grab a $5 beer.

    Started by Johnny Depp, you'll find a consistent stream of good music. Once in a while you'll get a crappy set.

    Don't turn your back. The waitress will swipe your $10 drink before you have a chance to drink half. Then try to make u pay $150 for a table at 1:30am. Been comin here 10 years. Don't even try it.

    Shows here always go off, which could be in part due to the drink specials. Order a whiskey and watch the crazy happen.

    If I have to tell you about this place...okay, fine. There's music. There are libations. There are scantily clad women. There are unusual sightings within and without. Did I mention there's music? Read more
