点评:We thoroughly dug Madrid’s La Coquette Blues Bar, a subterranean space with a lively crowd, cold drinks and a plugged in Chicago-style blues band. They feature an ever-changing roster of bands; you can see who’s playing on their web site. The doors open at 8 pm, and it’s a small place, so we showed up at 7:30 or so and stood in a short line outside. The line soon got longer behind us. Once inside, we found ourselves in a cavern-like underground space with rough stone walls, vintage blues show posters and a terrific Chicago blues soundtrack. A friendly waiter was taking drink orders, and everybody gets a bowl of sunflower seeds in the shell. It got crowded, but not uncomfortably so, as they limit admission; they let a couple new people in when some leaves. The band came on at 9 — a fun Chicago-style blues band with guitar, standup bass, drums and a female singer — and we stayed for most of the second set as well. The crowd was really upbeat and friendly, and we were offered free shots with our beers. All in all, had a great time and would recommend this spot for a fun evening out.
