Description:
MISSION BAY. After a refurb, this formerly dive-y hole-in-the-wall is now sort of a stylish hole-in-the-wall. Regardless of the décor, it's a good place to catch a show and has been for years, thanks to decent acoustics and a pretty good sound system. The owners book a bit of virtually everything, so you can expect local and regional bands playing anything from punk to ska to techno. Past performers include Cat Power, Suzanne Vega, Henry Rollins, System of a Down, Godsmack and DJ Koala. |

Description:
DOWNTOWN. If underground alternative rock's your thing, head to Casbah. It's the prime spot to hear up-and-coming bands perform before they're a who's who; think names like Smashing Pumpkins, Nirvana and Alanis Morissette. In addition to listening to great music, you can also relax with a game of pool or pinball or having a smoke on the outdoor smoking patio. |
