Paycheck's Lounge
For the last 30 years, countless Detroit rock bands, from the Romantics to the White Stripes, have drunk or played at Paycheck's Lounge. Dazzling red and yellow lights showcase the intimate stage area. The ceiling of the bar area is covered in Christmas lights, creating a moody place for music lovers to have a conversation, and still watch the show. On a Saturday night, you'll sip $2 beers with local musicians, college kids, retirees and everyone in between. --Ashley Woods
