Live Smallish Music Venues?

My partner and I are coming in from NYC for a romantic weekend...and neither of us have been to SF since childhood. We%26#39;d love to see some live Music on Saturday night November 3rd. Seeking suggestions for small/mid-sized music venues (anti Madison Square Garden)

Live Smallish Music Venues?

There%26#39;s a MUSIC section at the bottom of the frequently-updated SPECIAL EVENTS page that has irregularly-scheduled music and dances as well as links to seven calendars of regularly-scheduled dances, a composite of five of them, and one of dance cruises and events around the world: http://geocities.com/dancefest/Specials.html The MUSIC section at the bottom of the page focuses on the best of jazz.

You didn%26#39;t state the kind of music you like to hear. We have it all from soloists through chamber groups, Big Bands, to philharmonic; contemporary, classical, symphonic, Blues, Jazz, and on and on etc.

Obsidiansnow might provide a list for you. There are comprehensive listings in the San Francisco Bay Guardian and San Francisco Weekly, each free, and the San Francisco Chronicle.

nice list but you left off my favorite

bimbos365club.com

which is convenient to north beach and the fisherman%26#39;s wharf hotels.

Boraxo complained ?nice list but you left off my favorite

bimbos365club.com?

ObsidianSnow was correct to not include it. It%26#39;s dark more often than something happens there. It ain%26#39;t the night club it was when Bimbo was alive nor the Bal Tabarin that it was before it closed.

disagree. bimbos shows sell out all the time (check out the benefit show this weekend). the crowd at bimbos might appeal more than the hemlock or elbow room crowd. ditto for the music. each to his own.
