Does anyone know any clubs or bars in Kiev that have live bands?

Remember the Cowboy Club...oh boy. LOL.

I think the Guy Buddy Club has live entertainment.
I think the River Palace has live entertainment as well.

River Palace had a jazz/swing band the only time I went there. Not my cup of tea. Lady singer, singing in english with heavy accent. Place was nice, food was decent, reaked of mafia wanna-be a-hoe's.

a few were on the clock for them.

I wasn't too impressed with it either.  I was there to play and next time I go back to Ukraine, it'll be for serious wife hunting.  No fooling around.   The only reason I was there in the first place was my lady friend like didn't show up for our date that night and I thought I'd go out for some action.  What a waste of time in Ukraine.

I was one of those kind of guys that met one lady and dumb Bill is left stranded on somedays with nothing to do during that 2 week time period.  I was hard headed, thought she was the one...but in the end it was me who couldn't get their act together.

So in hindsight, it was more like a blessing.  I had to pass on a decent girl, but it was gods will that I'll find another one in time.

I'm happy the girl I was seeing has married, and has moved on to a better place.  I wish her well.

Al Capone's had a very good blues band on the second level next to the pool room the last time I was there. Lots of ladies, but in a rough section of the city

Thanks, I'm a professional musician so I always enjoy going out & hearing live music. I'll ask my wife about that place.

I'm sure she could easily get on line and sift throught he maze of russian and ukrainian online websites and come up with some valid joints.

My wife lives in Radomyshl. There are NO internet cafes there & the phone lines work like twice out of the week. :-((

I mean, is she like a farm girl or as LP put it a 'hayseed', that's what I'd have to really choose from.
