Best Place for Live Music: Readers' Choice
Be it a rock 'n' roll band, solo violinist or jazz trio, live music energizes your outing.
There is no music like live music ... a live performance can be the background to a pleasant dinner or the focal point of an evening out.
This week we want to know: where in town is the best place to hear live music? Is there a restaurant with strolling mariachi band? Or perhaps a harpist that plays at tea. Or maybe a rollicking rock venue that's a great place to socialize.
Beginning today -- Sunday, May 20 -- and through 5 p.m. Wednesday, May 23, we'll be asking for your recommendations for places to hear live music.
Give us your recommendation in the comments section below. With your help, we'll put together a list of nominees. Then look for our poll on Thursday, May 24 and vote! We'll select a winner at 5 p.m. Friday, May 25 and announce it in a story on Saturday, May 26.
In judging, we'll consider comments, poll votes and reviews in our complete directory of local businesses. Be sure to check out our contest rules in the PDF at right.

Sadie Rene's always has good "dance bands" on the weekends. Don't let their name give you cause for reservation - it is actually a great place for music. I say this because I thought it was a different type of "club" when I first moved to Canton.

That's a great suggestion, Chellsea.
Anyone else want to make a nomination?

Here's one you can take the kids to: Friday night at the Don Hertler Football Stadium. Live music during football season! Go Vikings!

Another good suggestion I wouldn't have thought of. Thanks, Pat!
