Live music/karaoke bars for a woman alone

Post new topic

SandyDunes

I've been in Bahrain a few of weeks now, and although I have a couple of friends, they don't really go to bars.
I'm looking to meet people who enjoy listening to live music, and dancing. Also information on any open mic nights/karaoke bars.  I've done a bit of singing in my time and I'd like to continue if possible. Are there any 'nice' places I can go as a woman alone?

Although I'm in my late forties, I'm doing my best to grow old disgracefully!
I'd like to meet people in a similar-ish age group please. I'm an Australian but have been an expat for more than 20 years. I've lived in a few GCC countries but really like the feel of Bahrain (after the hype of Dubai).

I hope that by next weekend I won't have to stay indoors with my music too loud, annoying the neighbours! Instead I hope I'll be out on the town... :)

Hi there.  I'm new to the area, so don't know of any places yet, but will keep my eye n this post.  I'd love to go do some karaoke with you!  I had a DJ business back in the states, so I do some singing too.  I hope the others give us both some info!

I agree with Golbin - I wouldn't worry about age as long as you enjoy yourself, doing the things you like.  :top:

There a bars in Bahrain that have live bands and on weekends they tend to be very popular and crowded.
In Juffair and Adliya there are a few bars that have live bands.

Enjoy your weekend  :whistle:

Lots of bars and outlets have karaoke lounges. But are all such places suitable for ladies to go to by themselves is something that has to be considered. There was a place my friends and I used to go. The Karaoke section was separated from the rest of the bar and hence quite good.

Thanks everyone for your replies. Unfortunately I have to leave Bahrain for a couple of months because my job has fallen through.
I hope to be back early in the new year, and look forward to making contact again. :)
