    If you're looking for some old school swing music or big band sounds, there's no place better than the Starlite Room. Sitting atop the Sir Francis Drake Hotel off of Union Square, the Starlite room is like stepping back into the 1940s. The waitress, all stunning, wear glamorous evening gowns and the seats are all little banquets. The music is great and the crowd is dressed to the nines, sometimes in period cloths from the 1940s. Weather your 25 or 75, you'll have a great time at the Starlite room.

    You'll be comfortable in slacks and a nice shirt (men and women), but get into the swing of things and dress for an old shool night on the town.

    Live Music: Romantic AND lively

  • 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.

    Live Music: Got the Blues?

  • Out looking for a place to have a couple drinks near Fisherman's Wharf, the music called us upstairs to Lou's. They had a great Blues/Rock band! What a lot of fun! Considering there isn't much else happening near the Wharf after 10, this is a great place to check out.

  • Kings of Leon - San Francisco
    Kings of Leon

    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.

    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.
