Nightclubs

My soon to be fiance and I are 22, and I know I%26#39;ll be taking her to a jazz club in Paris. Can anyone recommend any nightclubs worth going to? Also, what%26#39;s the music scene in Paris like these days? I%26#39;d like to start getting in the spirit if I can find some artists/songs...

Here%26#39;s some [streaming] Paris radio to listen to that may help you get into the spirit:

RadioCampus covers a wide range of music including jazz - http://www.radiocampusparis.org Here%26#39;s an example of a show from their archives from June - www.radiocampusparis.org/radio/real/ram.php3…

TSF 89.9 FM Jazz only. Web page - http://www.tsfjazz.com/ - live stream - http://217.71.208.36:8000/listen.pls

As metromole said, the best thing for you to get %26quot;in the mood%26quot; is to hook up to some Paris based radio stations:

Radio Nova is my favorite: it%26#39;s cool, eclectic, inventive, kinda intellectual. Not francophone at all though.

FIP is more or less its equivalent, but smoother, commercial and almost talk free (it%26#39;s a public radio). Also more air time devoted to francophone songs.

Two good rock stations: one public (Le Mouv%26#39;), the other private (Ouï FM). Le Mouv%26#39; also plays some more traditional contemporary chanson française, both are open to French rock

And finally, to know what middle of the road France listens to, here is NRJ, the number one radio network in the country. Heavy FM stuff à la française.
