A decent-sized club, Star Live can hold a few thousand patrons and is equipped with a brilliant sound system and fine lighting effects. Downstairs boasts a large dance floor with a small scattering of tables around the edges, while there is a VIP balcony upstairs. The stage is raised enough to provide good views everywhere in the venue but keeps the musicians close to the punters. Local acts, usually performing pop or rock, play here regularly while there are usually one or two international groups featured each month. The only downside is the incredibly small bar servicing the main area. You could miss half a performance waiting to get a drink when the place is crowded. Drinks are reasonably priced - about ¥20-30 RMB - and vary depending on who’s sponsoring the event.<br> Address: 79, Heping Xi Jie, Metro: Yonghegong (Lama Temple), Beijing, China<br>Contact: +86 (010) 6425 5677, http://www.thestarlive.com/en<br>From ThisIsLike.Com +86 (010) 6425 5677, http://www.thestarlive.com/en
