  • Tourists might nnot think about hte Richomd as a live msuic destination, but the Last Day Saloon is on a street chock a block with bars and restuarants and there's always tons of people around. It's a great spot to kick back and listen to live music....Upstairs, I've seen Stung- a Police Cover band and Zoostation- a U2 cover band, and it was fantastic. They also have non-cover bands as well, but most tend to be local. Come out and support your neighbors! Great sound, friendly folk, and right next door to the Dog's bollix (isn't that a great name??)

    casual!

  • This cozy and intimate lounge has a nice blue decor, a pool table, and plenty of candles. If you don't want to sit at the bar, you can also go "upstairs" by the pool table where there are ample seats as well. There are live jazz and salsa bands on the weekends

  • We had asked around for a chill place to go and catch some live music, with the condition that it was within walking distance or a short cab ride of Fisherman's Wharf.

    Jazz at Pearls was the recommendation. We lucked out! The San Francisco Contemporary Jazz orchestra was playing, and we got a special treat when Jamie Davis got up from the audience and sang a few songs. There was a nice atmosphere, without being stuffy, and it was indeed a 5 dollar cab ride from the Wharf. We had a great time!

    We only had drinks, but you can eat dinner there. They have a 8:00 and a 10:30 show. You likely need reservations on a busier night. We were there on a Monday.

    Biscuits and Blues is an outstanding blues club. It offers quality live blues acts. It’s a great place to listen to music in an intimate setting. They also offer Southern cuisine for those who want to add dinner to an evening of entertainment. The dinner is optional, as you can watch the shows without stopping by for dinner. But with the dinner option, you get a good seat and table as well as some good Southern cooking. On weekends they usually offer two shows, with the early one starting around 8:00 p.m. Dinner is only available for the early show. If you are planning on having dinner, it is a good idea to call for reservations. The club is located in the Theater District, which falls in transition zone between Union Square and the Tenderloin Neighborhoods. It is public transit friendly, as it is close to the cable car lines and is within walking distance from the Powel Street BART Station. Their website shows the up-coming acts.

    Before we left for San Francisco, we checked on-line to see if any bands we were interested in were playing while we were there. It turned out Kings of Leon were with Jet opening. Since I work in a record store, we got the promos and I had been listening to them, so I was anxious to see these bands live. Slim's was a great place to see them because the sound is awesome in there no matter where you're standing. The place was packed, so we had to stand in the back, but after Jet we got to move up closer for The Kings of Leon. They have full bars and some food. Get there early for a table in the balcony.

    Lou's is a restaurant located near the Ocean, specialized in seafood and spiced food.
    But it is known to provide free live music after 8PM especially blues.

    Slim's is a regular bar that also hosts live bands and dj's. Very popular with the brit-pop crowd and a regular haunt for local bay area music afficiandoes.

    Depends on the band, but do put in a little effort and the rewards will be well worth your while.

    Very Relaxed Casual bar. Upstairs is a concert hall which has some seriously good bands performing. Downstairs is your average bar with pool tables, dart boards and the likes.
    It opened on August 2, 1973.

    No Requirements.
