PE 9/13 Hollywood's Musical Venues

If you're looking for an edgy club, you can't get any more hip than the famous nightclub, The Viper Room. Many rock bands got their first big break at this legendary Hollywood nightclub.
* edgy: 개성 있는, unique
* hip: (slang), very modern and follow all the latest fashion

Cool! We might see the next big act, while they are still struggling on the Sunset Strip.

Or you might see a famous band; big names frequently drop in unannounced and jam on stage. Usually, celebrities get wind of the event and show up in droves.
* jam: 즉흥 공연을 하다, play informal setting,
* in droves: 떼 지어, 무리 지어
* get wind of: 소문을 듣다
ex> "Keep tight lipped about the layoffs, I don't want the union get wind of them."

Where there's smoke, there's fire: if a famous band drops in, you can bet on famous people dropping in. I hope we get lucky!
* where there's smoke there's fire: 아니 땐 굴뚝에 연기 나랴
ex> Neither of my son's admits to breaking the vase, but where there's smoke there's fire.
* you can bet on: 틀림없다, 정말이다
ex> "Will you call me?" "You can bet on it!"

Your chances are good. The L.A. Times called it "the most consistently hip club in town."
