Rock Bars Worth the Detour
1
The Rainbow Bar & Grill — Los Angeles
Sunset Strip. Lemmy's seat, rock memorabilia, and the patio where half of LA metal has had a drink.
2
9:30 Club — Washington DC
Consistently rated one of the best live rock rooms in the country.
3
The Crocodile — Seattle
The grunge-era club that's still booking the bands that matter.
4
Whisky a Go Go — Los Angeles
Still a working rock room on the Strip — the stage that broke a thousand bands.
5
Saint Vitus Bar — Brooklyn
The metal and punk hub of NYC — tiny room, serious sound, always booked.
