Default Know of any good live music venues / pubs that have live bands?

I've been looking online, but I'm sure there's a ton of places out there that don't have web sites. Know of any bars in your area that have good live music? Post em here or shoot me a private message!

Thanks a bunch,
-Steve

Ship and Anchor, Unicorn, Iron Horse, Morgans, Rusty Cage. I am sure there are many others but that's what comes to mind. I haven't been out on the town for live music forever but think I am due.

Off the top of my head...The Distillery, Verns Pub, The Gateway (SAIT), Liberty Lounge, The Underground, The Warehouse, Thirsty Dog Pub, The Black Swan, The Kings Head.

Pick up a copy of the FREE weekly FFWD paper, it has tons of shows listed in it with different genre's and such, a good resource.

Kingshead in the South, Pig & Whistle Pub in the North, Morgans Downtown. Rustycage in the westend but it's not really a "pub",more of a seedy nightclub IMO. If you live out that way I hear The Richmond Pub is good these days.

I find the bands at the Rose and Crown are usually pretty good.

This place is usually packed and a lot of fun!

I miss the King Richard. I usually had a good time there.
