Description:
BUCKHEAD. Experience something completely unexpected at Dante's. Inside the large building, a replica 18th-century ship, complete with rigging, rests in a reservoir of water (inhabited by live crocodiles!). Thirteen levels accommodate diners, who indulge in cheese or meat fondue while admiring antique fittings and furnishings around them. Visitors to the ship can enjoy soothing live jazz six nights a week, and a vocalist performs Mondays. A great wine list is an added perk. Guests are permitted to come for the music without having dinner. Reservations for dinner or drinks recommended.

Description:
BUCKHEAD. This laid-back venue, with its relaxed sophistication and comfortable furnishings, attracts a regular clientele, who come for delicious martinis and smooth jazz music. A professional crowd frequents the intimate place, stopping in after work or gathering in the evening. Lounging on upholstered sofas, nursing cold drinks, they simply soak in the ambience and the sweet smokiness of cigars. Live piano music serenades visitors, and you'll also find champagne and – of course – caviar.

Description:
NORTH DRUID HILLS ROAD. On Atlanta's northside, few places can compete with Fuzzy's as far as live music goes. An Atlanta staple for more than two decades, this cozy bar features live local and national blues acts in a Big Easy-style environment that includes rustic wood paneling and all your standard beer company odds and ends. Most nights, Fuzzy's televisions are tuned to whatever big game or popular show is on – majority rules, you know? Best of all, you can always count on the place slinging some of the best-priced beer in town. Chef Joe Dale, a local legend, serves up some of the meanest Cajun food north of Louisiana too, including blackened tilapia, crayfish etouffee, and jambalaya.

Description:
MIDTOWN. You'll love this SOB – that's Smith's Olde Bar, of course. Though DJ dance parties are common, you'll also frequently find live music presented on the circular stage. Special songwriters' nights often showcase up-and-coming talents on the cabaret-style stage. If you aren't in the mood to dance or if the live show isn't your style, head downstairs for free jazz, or get into a game of pool. The relaxed vibe and broad array of entertainment options make this venue a favorite.

Description:
MIDTOWN. Very retro and very cool, Midtown's Loft has emerged as a truly great place to catch live music. Per its name, the venue occupies a second-story space that is wide-open and sleekly decorated with mod furniture. Activity around the four full-service bars helps keep the stylish 20-somethings occupied during pauses in the music ... And speaking of music, the Loft books a wide array of it, from Digable Planets to international acts like The Subways. Popular regionalites also get stage time from week to week, and many shows tend to sell out before the doors ever open.

WESTSIDE. A fun Westside beer joint, this one is a little out of the way, but that doesn't deter the regulars who hang out there. Decidedly casual, anything goes as far as attire. But if you are downtown sightseeing or having a meal, it's an entertaining place to head afterwards. The schedule is full of live shows, which range from great to less-than-great. Pool tables and homestyle grub round out this laid-back nightspot's offerings.
