UTICA. This club serves a dual purpose in town, as both a dance venue and a place for live bands to perform. When dancing is on the slate, DJs spin a variety of tunes; when bands take the stage, rock is generally the favored style. That's not to say, however, that other types of music don't appear. Diverse acts frequent the place, and DJs cater the music they spin to their own tastes and to those of the crowds.

DOWNTOWN. Aged brick walls and hardwood floors surround club-goers at this appealing venue, which is a great place to grab a beer or cocktail and socialize. Daily drink specials up the ante a bit, and a pool table, dart board, and foosball table provide easy distraction. Live bands play occasionally, and when they're not around, a great jukebox takes on crowds with a supply of tunes. You'll also find folks dancing regularly when the spirit hits and the rhythms move them.
