About 10Best's Minneapolis Nightlife Selections:
It's not overstating when somebody discusses how influential and impactful Minneapolis has been to the evolution of American music over the last three decades. After all, Minneapolis music venues were the first to lend their ears to alt-rock legends like The Replacements, Hüsker Dü, and Soul Asylum as well as the groundbreaking R&B sounds of Prince and Morris Day & the Time. Even the immortal Bob Dylan has ties to the Minneapolis scene, as the native Minnesotan often played at area bars during the year or so he was enrolled at the U of M. Live music continues to be a major component of the nightlife equation here, but it's safe to say that the scope of the Minneapolis nightlife slate runs deep and wide these days. Indeed, it's possible to spend time listening to fabulous jazz at a place like Dakotas, relax with pint in cozy environs at Brits or one of the many Irish pubs, show off those well-rehearsed moves at Ground Zero, and savor the expert mixology at Ike's all in one weekend.

The Annex/ LoneTree in a two level bar with 3 bars and 2 dance floors. Downstairs is the Annex bar and upstairs is the Lone Tree. You can dance to hip-hop/pop downstairs on their sunken dance floor and rock/pop music upstairs on their raised dance floor. Always a good crowd on the weekends, but there is usually a $5 cover charge on the weekends. Downstairs they also offer a VIP area with bottle service.
