Best Open-Mike Night
Award Winner 2011

Hours: Daily 6pm-12am

Description

Located inside the American Legion, Harvey's is a laid-back sports bar with a slightly retro feel that can be morphed into a tiny dance club or live music venue. Fridays often feature local and national underground punk or indie bands. The back room offers lounging on battered couches. Saturdays, DJs spin a wide spectrum of music, from 80s to hip-hop, and even goth/industrial tunes. Pool tables offer alternative entertainment and gawking at the off-kilter art lining the walls is an event in itself. Open every day, Harvey's has a full bar and happy hour, with cheap drinks and specials almost every night. Late night munchers can try their greasy and delicious bar food.

2011 | Best Open-Mike Night

A love of words and wine is pretty much the job description for every position at New Times, so we're predisposed to like this event. In fact, we're drinking wine right now. Moreover, we are three sheets to the Caribbean sea breeze. So this makes us experts on open-mike nights. So we'll fulfill our second job duty before we pass out. Try these words: American Legion. Veterans organization. Harvey's by the Bay. Artists. Wine. Guitars. Indie musician guest stars from Portland. Wine. Breeze.... More »
2010 | Best Bartender

Go to the American Legion and order a goddamn drink. Yes, the American Legion. A little patriotism won't kill you, you fucking hipster. Sit your ass down and have a fucking beer. A fucking Bud Light. There's a fancy place around the corner if you want to be a pussy, OK Take a swig of that shit and ask for Sean. He's a bartender and he's a real straight talker. He's fought in some wars. Just shut the fuck up and listen to him. The dude tells some good stories, you asshole. Also, watch the... More »
2006 | Best Jukebox

Half of this CD jukebox's playlist is what you would expect in an American Legion hall, generally a venue occupied by octogenarians. Thus the juke is well stocked with crooners (Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin are here) and country standards (Merle Haggard and Hank Willams make appearances). But the surprising thing is its eclecticism. Perhaps because this Legion hall is only one of two open to the public, there are some uncharacteristic choices, like R.E.M.'s greatest hits, Modest Mouse,... More »
2005 | BEST LOW-RENT BAR

There's something eerie about American Legion Post No. 29 at night. The bar, a huge sunken square that could probably fit 60 people, is almost always empty. The comfortable couches, unused. The pool table and dart board, dormant. Often the only person in the place is the bartender, watching the big-screen TV set alone. This makes sense only in Miami, where people wait in line to get into swanky clubs with overpriced drinks rather than chill at an inexpensive watering hole like the Legion.... More »
2003 | BEST OPEN-MIKE NIGHT

The vegetables were speaking to meYou see, I used to understand the whispering broccoli and brussel sproutsBut I never heard a peep from the peas, and I love peasAfter all, I was the dishrag, the sponge, the dishwashing ZenThen I heard of the World Wrestling Jackass DuoWhere big bully Bush fights little bully HusseinAnd sweating oily men get it on And suddenly the earth became my booking agentAnd I became a planetary citizen.
