What to expect

1

The Comedy Store

<nil>

Previously a nightclub that had a pesky mobster problem, this building closed when the owner ran into financial difficulties. It reopened as The Comedy Store in 1972, the world's first all standup comedy nightclub.

2

Pendry West Hollywood

This location used to be The House of Blues, the first one built west of the Mississippi. The House of Blues closed its doors in 2015, and was the place where Tupac Shakur gave his last recorded performance before his untimely death.

3

Mels Drive-In

Opened as Mels in 1997, this location used to be a Ben Franks. Rock n' roll legends like Frank Zappa and members of The Rolling Stones hung out here.

4

Mutato Muzika

Originally constructed as a plastic surgery practice, musician Mark Mothersbaugh bought this building in the late 1980s. Following the purchase, the building was converted into a full-service production company, which it still is today.

5
The Viper Room

No stranger to scandal and tragedy, this nightclub is perhaps most famous as the site of the River Phoenix's death in the 1990s.

6

Whisky a Go Go

<nil>

Truly iconic, this nightclub is where go-go dancing was born, and The Doors were the house band, before they made it big..

7
The Roxy

Priding itself on hosting established and up-and-coming groups, this theatre has witnessed the birth of many popular acts, among them Paul Reuben's "Pee Wee Herman" character.

8
Rainbow Bar and Grill

This location was The Villa Nova from the 1940s to the 1960s, and was apparently a destination for love, having seen Vincent Minelli's proposal to Judy Garland, and Marilyn Monroe's meeting her second husband, Joe DiMaggio.
