So, where can one go to practice their new-found
dance skills? Unfortunately,
in Prince George the options are limited... it is a redneck town after all.
However, there are some decent places to go and cut a rug.
Nelly's Pub
- 2280 Hart Highway (next to YRB yard)
No cover charge. Live local bands on Friday and Saturday nights; canned
music is piped in between sets. Linoleum dance floor is small but not very busy.
Royal Canadian Legion
- 1355 Seventh Avenue (between the Four Seasons Pool and the Coast Hotel)
- Open Monday-Thursday 11:30 am-11 pm, Friday & Saturday 11:30am-1:30pm, Sunday
12:00pm-11:00pm
 Everyone welcome, though typically a more mature crowd.
Live local country bands Friday and Saturday 8:30-12:30pm. Large linoleum dance
floor. Patrons can also enjoy billiards, darts, cribbage, satellite TV, Keno, and karaoke (Thursday & Sunday evenings 'til 11). Facility includes a restaurant.
Prince George Blues Underground Network
Local non-profit organization devoted to bring quality jazz and blues to the
Prince George area. One or two Canadian and local bands are scheduled per month.
Some events are concerts while others host a dance as well. Venue and cost
varies. These dances are a wonderful
opportunity to get out and swing the night away!
Blues North has moved! Their dances are now held at
the Columbus Community Centre in College Heights. New venue = bigger
dance floor!
Recent events include:
Kenny "Blues Boss" Wayne, Cal Batchelor Band, Glamour Puss,
Sonny
Rhodes, Gary Comeau & the Voodoo Allstars,
Ray King Blues Band
