There is a bar that i frequent at in newark, this place is popin thursday-sunday. It's on the corner of jarvis and newark blvd. The well drinks are not watered down and if you want a pitcher of beer it's 10 bucks. This place can hold about 50 people, i have been scoping this place for a few2 months now and what really dominates this place is a wide variety of types of music there. this place is not that small but it's cozy.

Thanks for the tip. I'll check out Kitty's. But from a quick look at their web site, they seem to have a pretty established schedule, and pretty established regular crowd (hip-hop). But maybe that's just the impression they want to give, and they are kinda slow and receptive to new business! Do love Emeryville. Still growing, lots of potential!

I thought Eli's was pretty exclusive to live bands. Great space, but would they be receptive to a bunch of homos and a dj?

Armando's 707 Marina Vista, Martinez (downtown) about a block from the Amtrak station, and they have a bus to BART won't hold 100 people live music Thursday, Friday, Saturday, sometimes Sunday excellent sound, always live mixed by someone who knows what they're doing cover typically $8, beer $4, full glass of good wine $6. Nobody's getting rich. voted Diablo Magazine's 2007 Most Eclectic Night Out Open Mic 1st Thursday, Blues Night 2nd Monday (cover $3 for open mic(i think) & blues night(i'm sure)) www.martinezvibes.com/armandos I'm there at least twice a week because a) I've know Roy aka Armando for quite a while, b) I absolutely love live music, c) the sound is righteous, d) I live about a mile away, e) it's a great venue for local talent, and f) you have to support local venues that support local musicians or else there won't be places like this.

Thanks, will check out the Down Low... Think I've passed it before, havn't ever been in.

People seem to get stuff going at the downlow on Shattuck in Berkeley. I don't know any of the deets, but it's adjacent to pasand.

Also looked at the Oasis. Same problem. With 100 people, would still feel empty... With 60 people even more so. Want some place I could have about 50 people (or more ideally, but realistic expectations I want to start small), and not loose money on a bar minimum.

I've looked at the uptown, even talked to the owner. Might be a little too big (can probably hold about 400 if you count the upstairs area), plus the owner wants a pretty hefty bar guarantee for a weekend ($1500+). Sounded like he might be willing to negotiate if we were really into having pink floyd cover bands. Not really my thing.

Where have you looked so far? What you described sounds exactly like The Uptown. The Uptown Nightclub 1928 Telegraph Ave, Oakland http://www.uptownnightclub.com

Looking to start up a new club night in the East Bay. Right now, probably just a monthly event. Looking for suggestions on a venue to do this at. Have looked at a few, but none of them feel right so far. The ideal venue would be: • In Oakland, Emeryville or Alameda • Receptive to having a club promoter come in and take over a night (including charging a cover), am willing to discuss a bar guarantee • Not too big, not too small. Ideally would hold about 100 people and feel packed with that many • Small dance floor. Limited dj equipment or sound system ideal, but can provide my own • Outside smoking patio (ideal, but not required) • Open minded, or at least tolerant of gay people and people who like to dress up in funny costumes • Easy to work with owners. Don't want a venue that will kick the chair out in front of me while I'm loading in something heavy
