Silicon Valley is home to several trendy bars and clubs such as Johnny V’s, Trials Pub, Hedley Club, The Old Pro Bar, Harry’s Hofbrau, Kirby’s Sports Bar, JJ’s Blues, Scruffy Murphy’s Irish Pub, The Saddle Rack and many others.

My trip began Friday night, the second night of Sundance and one of the busiest nights on the town. Every dive-bar and mediocre club on Main Street had been transformed into the glitz and glamorous clubs of New York and Los Angeles and had been taken over by uptight LA bouncers and cut-throat publicists. One thing was clear: Sundance wasn’t about the films. It was about the parties. As Nelly would say on stage a few days later, “Sundance is winter’s Spring Break!” For this week, the signs read Tao, Marquee and Motorola Lounge. Instead of beer-bellied regulars, the bars were filled with Hollywood’s hottest crop of young actors including Sienna Miller, Josh Hartnett, Justin Timberlake and Jared Leto.

If you have any thoughts with regards to exactly where and how to use Landtees, you can call us at the internet site. The bartenders at t-shirt country are some of the best I’ve encountered, both here in North Carolina and Virginia. They know how to make a drink, at that, one that isn’t just ice with a splash of liquor. The biggest selling point would have to be their prices. Tap beers are usually $3, PBR is always on special at $2 Sundays-Thursdays and $2.50 Friday and Saturday, house liquors are usually $4-$5 and whatever concoction on special is under $5. It’s hard to complain when $25 can go such a long way.

Better known as Zotts, although I’m not really sure why, this little hideout in Portola Valley just off Interstate 280 in the South Bay is one of a kind. Between the rectangular burgers, giant sausage sandwiches, and 40 ounce beers – that’s right, big, old school 40s – it’s impossible not to enjoy yourself at Zotts. Oh, and while the beer garden is absolutely huge, it will fill up on nice weekend days, so get their before noon.

Now, you were there last Wednesday and there was your ex. The two of you’d broken up several weeks ago. She was a seriously jealous type. Well, while you were up there singing your heart out on “Total Eclipse of the Heart” or something like that, she got a hold of your phone and deleted every female name from it, including your mom and grandma.

What makes a good nightclub great is the inclusion of live music. A club that plays top 40s is all well and good, but a club that has a house DJ or a local band on stage brings the feeling of a big event to the club. Hearing song mash-ups or remixes spun from an artist’s turntable gets everyone on their feet and moving. And a live band makes a crowd roar. This makes the club the must-see hot spot for lovers of nightlife.

And maybe it’s more of the lack of music halls in the state that is creating all the hoo-rah about Buster’s. Jon Bodine, the talent buyer for Buster’s and college friend of the Cases, said the venue was opening up in an underserved market, and it made sense they were getting so much attention.
