In Short
Initially a blues and roots venue, this popular night spot also had a stint as a deliciously feral alternative-rock club. These days, it hosts a variety of top local and national acts, including punk, alternative, metal, hip-hip, indy rock and even country. Check out bigger acts upstairs while up-and-comers share the bill downstairs. There is an outside patio (for smoking) with a bar and grill that serves food on show nights. Fitzgerald's is also a fantastic place for people-watching.

this place has been around forever-basically unchanged. it just knows what it is and what it does best: serve up live music and drinks (to the over 21 crowd). actually, going up the second floor balcony you stop momentarily to wonder why this place just doesn't collapse into a pile of sticks and teen rockers. anyway, it has always looked exactly like this as far back as i can remember (20+ years). it's a fun place, combining dive bars (2 indoors, 1 outdoors) with live music in a place large enough where you can move around. i guess you could dance, but people really don't and it's not a dance club anyway. people come to drink and listen to live music. there's (usually) an upstairs and downstairs show, so your chances of finding something you like are doubled(?). there's outdoor seating in the back yard. a lot of bookings are geared towards younger people...but this place is so well rooted as a club that first comes to mind to middle-aged people, i don't think anyone would feel too out of place on most nights. the down side is parking is mostly on the street unless you arrive really early.

We were at Fitzgerald's last night for the Cowboy Mouth show and it was amazing! Not only did we get to see one of the best live shows I have ever seen (the energy in that room was awesome), we had the most wonderful time in the club! The bar staff was killer! It took me a few minutes to decide what kind of beer I wanted because there were so many different ones to pick from! My friend got a mixed drink called a Blue Jay... a specialty drink made by one of the bartenders... it kicked!!! I can't wait for Cowboy Mouth to come back again!!!! The best part... the manager, Tobin, was the sweetest guy... he walked us out to our car after the show. Yeah, parking is kinda hard sometimes ,but the staff is really cool about making sure you get to your car safely.
