I posted this in the lounge also but I was hoping to keep it as local as possible.

We have a client in town this week (until Fri.) and I wanted to show him around Brooklyn. He is a southern rock n roller (from the 70's) and I was hoping I could take him to some Brooklyn places. Anyone know where there is some live music happening around here this week?

    check the South Paw on 5th Ave in Park Slope. Awesome place to catch a show. Also Magnetic Fields on Atlantic Ave in Brooklyn Heights usually has some nice low key acts performing. My band played there and they had $1 beers for the duration of our set, so we made sure to play as long as we could!

    on Atlantic between Henry and Hicks.
    subways:
    2/3 (Clark St. stop)
    4/5 (Borough Hall stop)
    M/R (Court Street stop)
    F/A/C (Jay Street-Borough Hall stop)
    F/G (Bergen stop)
    here's a little area map with those subway stops marked thanks to the fine folks of google maps!
