However, it is still very popular for alternative rock and live music venues dish up a diverse range of rock, pop and blues music on a nightly basis.
The clubs here ar fairly laid back but offer the usual loud music and crowded dance floors that the larger cities can dish up. Some clubs have no cover charges and the ones where you have to pay range between $5 and $15 dollars depending on the entertainment on offer.
