The Rock is a big club in the west valley with a big stage and lots of room for slamming. They also have a huge selection of domestic and imported beer.
Blue neon lines the bar and the staff is always friendly and helpful.
Just call Bambi, convince her that you can draw at least 25 people, and you're in. The Rock books all types of bands, and features cover bands as well as originals. Take Topanga Canyon North about 2 miles to Sherman Way, and it's just past the light on the right. Also on the street, especially on the other side.
