Thursday nights at Neighborhood Bar turn into a jam session when Talon and Brent Muscat bring their guitars through the doors, joined by Mike Long and Rigo Flores for a loose, lived-in evening of live rock. This is a Led Zeppelin-themed night, so expect the riffs and grooves that made that sound so enduring, filtered through the personalities of musicians who clearly enjoy playing together. The neighborhood bar setting means it never feels stiff or scripted—if you play an instrument, bring it and look for a chance to sit in with the band.

The rest of the night runs the way a good dive bar should: cheap drinks, a burger and fries if you're hungry, and a room full of regulars and rock fans mixing it up at the pool table or the bar top. There's no cover to get in, so it's an easy call to swing by, grab a seat, and let the music fill the space between conversations with friends.
