Whisky a Go Go

The world famous music venue, The Whisky A Go-Go, is located on the Sunset Strip in the heart of West Hollywood. Having been around since 1964, this two-story venue has much history within the music industry in Los Angeles. Many bands that have grown to become incredibly well-known got their start performing on this rock venue’s stage. From the classic Van Halen to some of today’s latest bands, this all age’s venue has had both big and small names take their stage for years. You cannot go wrong with a full bar, restaurant, and live music, and that is why the Whisky a Go-Go is a fun-filled time for all! If you are interested in a good time, check out their concert calendar on their official website.

If you're ever in the Hollywood area, this venue is a place you must visit. This place is a well known venue for bands with a lot of history. I've been twice in the past year, both times to hear a band with a friend. The last visit, the band sounded great and the crowd seemed to enjoy too. The atmosphere seems energetic with an option to party downstairs near the band, or enjoy intimate drinks with a nice view upstairs. Overall, if you want to experience a venue that has hosted many iconic acts, this will be one place to put on your "to-visit" list!

One of my all time favorite drives is down the Sunset Strip in Hollywood. I went to go see my best friends band, Bourbon Missile Crisis, perform on a weeknight. I felt that the cover and drinks were overpriced. The crowd was minimal and I did not have a good time that night. I'm going to check out a bigger band on the weekend for a better review. Stay tuned...

is world famous for a reason. Whether it be local LA natives watching local acts, to out of town people visiting for a night on the Sunset Strip, the Whisky is a destination to all. Check out the Jack Daniels inspired tables and bars in several corners of the main room. Also, there is a 2nd floor with bar access near where band's keep their merch tables that is a birds-eye view of the stage. Unlike some other venues on the strip, the Whisky is also all ages and serves food. The best parking option is behind the club, up a little way on Clark St.
