The Foundry Live Music Club

The Highlander Live Music Club

Trackside Tavern Live Music Club

This agreeable Decatur hangout checks off all the dive-bar basics with high marks. The beers are cheap, the bar food (burgers, wings, tater tots) are solid, and the vibe is the best kind of casual. Local artwork adorns the walls, and there's occasional live music on Saturdays. | more...

Variety Playhouse Live Music Club

CL: This Little Five landmark bills itself as a combination theater and nightclub, and its mixture of tables and theater-style seating bears out that description. The atmosphere is looser than at theaters like the Fox, to boot. Variety largely hosts national acts that appeal to those over 30 — alt-country singer-songwriters, prog-rock reunions, '80s alt-rock pioneers and the like.

Variety Playhouse is the winner of numerous Best Of awards over the years. | more...
