According to a feature called "Venues That Rock" by Rolling Stone Magazine, this are the top 20 clubs in the United States Of America:
20) Brooklyn Bowl (Brooklyn, NY)
19) Middle East Club (Cambridge, MA)
18) 40 Watt Club (Athens, GA)
17) Union Transfer (Philadelphia, PA)
16) Belly Up (Aspen, CO)

Opened 15 years ago in a vacant jewelry store and haberdashery on the Lower East Side, the 550-capacity club is a must-play for bands on the way to stardom. David T. Viecelli, agent for Arcade Fire, says it's "another dressing room or two shy of perfection." It's both intimate and grand, with consistently great sound and sightlines, and touches of old-school class, like 84-year-old brass rails.
