Good drinks + music w/35-45 yr old crowd

Hi- Just moved from US looking for a place to go for happy hour or a Fri/Sat night to listen to good music/good drinks geared toward the over 35 crowd. Is there a decent jazz club around?

Define "good drinks"... Beers or fancy glow in the dark cocktails?

First there was the 20 somethings, 30 somethings, 40 somethings get togethers. Now we have a breakaway 35-45 grouping. What's with all the ageism?

Not to mention "good music" - some people even consider Country and Western to classify as good music, strange but true.

Vibes on Wyndham St gets good reviews for the jazz/blues though I haven't had a chance to drop by yet.

The FCC has jazz on Tu/Th/Fr from 9 or so. And the people there definitely meet your age criteria (the 35+ bit at least)! The drinks are good value too, but you need to be or with a member (only members can pay bills there).

hullexile : I've been getting PM's about 45+ groups too.

Time to get all the oldies out.

Havana on Elgin St has nice Salsa music and Mojito. Love their Chicken wings too. Recently visited "Linq" (if I remember the name correctly), nice red and music.

Wanna drink tonight? Anyone wants to join?

vibe and good vibes

I've been to Vibe and consider their house band the best in HK. They mainly play Jazz/Blues but can also put on classic rock when the mood strikes.

I don't have a positive review of Havana though. Didn't like the service--hey I know it's bad in general in HK but theirs is BAD--nor the food. By the way, does anyone know where to find great Buffalo wings?

Vibe is good and plays from 9pm onwards, after that one can go to backstage live at wellington street they are having a very good jazz group playing from 10.30 onwards...
