Are there any clubs in Carbondale that have live music every weekend?
Back in the day - first half of the '80s - Hangar 9 had bands just about every weekend. Saw Big Twist & The Mellow Fellows there; a famous Blues harmonica player (so famous I can't recall his name now...lol); Koko Taylor (twice); the Modern Day Saints, and many great local and midwest college bands.
The new Hangar 9, really nice building as compared to the pole barn hangar of old, has bands performing frequently but I don't believe its every weekend. My son was in two different bands that played there (Lung Darts and his Ska-Punk band).
Go Dawgs!

John Cougar Mellencamp
Dio
Van Halen (though might have driven to St. Louis for that concert...)
Wish I had bought tickets for the Police but...no I didn't.
There were a few more too, but... Drove up to St. Louis for several concerts and over to Evansville for one too.
Saw Pat Metheny and Stevie Ray Vaughan at Shryock.
Caught some of the REM concert in the Roman dining area in the Student Center.

Aerosmith Jan of 85' my buddy says the only person drunker than the band was me. Huey Lewis and the News March of 87' and REM March of 89'. Arena is a great place to see a show.
