Any club with the chutzpah to kick out John Lennon for heckling deserves its place in history. The Troubadour could have become L.A.'s version of CBGB's and rested on the laurels from its history as the proving ground for James Taylor, Joni Mitchell and Elton John. But instead, it's become the only reason for indie kids to drive west of La Brea. Top-shelf rock, folk and experimental acts play...

After an uncharacteristic stint hosting heavy metal in the '80s, it rebounded in the '90s breaking acts like No Doubt and Gomez. The all-ages policy means varied crowds, but a full bar ensures the over-21 contingent will feel right at home. For a bird's-eye view of the...

an intimate venue with their own box office so you can avoid the ridiculous ticketmaster markups. I have never seen a bad headlining performance in this venue and the sound is always up to par.
