New York
 
My buddy and I will be in town for the marathon this weekend and would like to go out and party after the race. We are both 45 years old and looking for a bar/club that plays classic rock or 70's/80's music. Any suggestions?

Check out Time Out New York - list tons of clubs of every variety - and tells you which has what type of music on which nights - and also what special activities/bands will be where.

Most of the places that fit that description in NYC would be the sports bars. Do you know where you'll be watching the race? Depending on the location, I can give you some good recommendations.

If you are running the race, there is a party sponsored by Coors Lite and the ING NYC Marathon. Go to the website: www.INGNYCMarathon.org

If you are spectators, during the race, First Avenue is the most fun place to watch!

Culture Club is a big club that plays mostly 80's music.

You'll have a blast.

I don't think I would go to culture club on a Sunday afternoon. It caters mostly to bachelor and bachelorette parties in town on weekend nights. I would look on www.sheckys.com in the immediate area from where you'll be watching the race. You can pick a fun sports bar that plays good music.

Actually, we will be running the race. The official race party will be at the Copacabanna on Sun evening. If it gets slow there, we'll want to split and look for something better. What clubs/bar are happening on Sunday night?
