The 18th and Vine District may not be as hip as it once was, but the ghosts of cool cats like Charlie Parker still remain at the Blue Room. Part joint, part museum, this is the place to experience the best in local jazz. Ida McBeth appears here often, as does expert saxophonist Bobby Watson. The walls and the hollow glass tabletops hold a collection of commemorative pieces, including pictures, instruments and records from the 1920s and 1930s. Even though a jazz club without the haze of cigarettes seems unnatural, smoking is not allowed in order to protect the museum's artifacts.
The Blue Room is cool. It stays packed. They're right next to the American Jazz Museum so they get a fair amount of traffic.
Great jazz!
They call it stormy Mondays. This is a great place area to listen to jazz/blues.
