;
1735 19th St)
This lively dueling piano bar is popular
with bachelorette parties. It fills up quickly, so arrive around 6:30pm to score a table near
the pianos. It's pretty noisy (don't expect much talking) but the atmosphere is fun. Song
requests are taken (usually accompanied by $5), but many folks request the same songs.

One of the major music
venues in town, this big open space has hosted classic acts such as Parliament Funkadelic,
big indies such as Feist, and even roller derby. The acoustics are far from perfect, but it's
certainly one of Denver's essential venues.

Fight some windmills at this geeky-meets-freaky space kitted out with a quality PA
system and a good bar. Most nights it's free, but sometimes there'll be a modest cover
charge.

Denver's
best comedy club occupies a basement space in Larimer Sq (enter down a set of stairs at
the corner of Larimer and 15th) and routinely brings in up-and-coming yucksters from
around the country. It can be a bit cramped if you're claustrophobic, but the seats are com-
fortable and the quality of acts is top shelf. Performances also take place at the slightly
bigger
