I guess Bondage Ranch isn't what you are looking for? :D
Beebo has a dyke bar on her place. I usually am fishing on the water outside but have popped in occasionally.

Live music is great!
It helps if you enjoy everything including really bad karaoke, of course. :) If you don't, you'll want to concentrate on people who are actually good. We had a thread on that awhile back:
http://www.secondcitizen.net/Forum/showthread.php?t=2270
If you're a girl who likes the company of girls, the FABglitter club (somewhere more or less in the center of Mooter) has frequent events, pretty much around the clock, or at least it seems that way. And the people and conversation are fun. (I can see their green dots from my Park in Hughes Rise, and sometimes I go there when I am a girl; they aren't strict that way.)
Persephone Phoenix's Blue Angel Poet's Dive is a wonderful place to hang out, listen to poetry readings, dance on the bar, and talk to smart people.
Tiphares is one of my favorite clubs. They have regular events on Sunday nights, and also some other times that I can never remember. Very friendly an' intelligent regulars.
There's a few anyway. :)

Lourdes and I do not spend tons of time in SL; when we log we usually end up in either House of V or Bogart's.
The first one is a high traffic BDSM club.
The second one is a formal dress jazz type of club.

Last year when I was on more there used to be an amazing live blues singer that performed every week but she's gone now :(

There is still alot of good live blues. There's someone with a really unlikely name what was it...
Komuso Tokugawa!
... who a friend of mine swear is "better than sex". I wouldn't go that far myself :) but if you like blues guitar and smoky male vocals, he's good. Performs at what seem like random odd hours (he's in Japan, I believe, but the odd hours aren't that simple...).

Meh...
Komasu is an ass.
First off, I've heard better blues in pubs.
Second, guy's a fucking prima donna.
I think it was San's birthday, and P2 hired him to play for them at a party in Darkmere.
So far so good.
So he turns up, weve already built a stage for him, and one of his entourage (yes he comes complete with roadies) starts to build a fucking stage on top of other shit thats laid out in the village, and ignores people telling him theres a stage already.
So, onto the show.
Komasu is already being paid to perform at a private fucking function.
He puts out a tip jar, and mentions it constantly between songs....
He TPs in his fucking fan club, most of them strangers to everyone there, including P2 and Sans, filling the sim, and making it impossible for people P2 and Sans invited to get to the party.
Komasu can go suck shit covered donkey dick as far as I'm concerned.
Hes a greedy fuck of a prima donna, and isn't good enough to perform in any real blues venue

On the other hand, when I was hospitalized last year, Komuso did a benefit concert and donated the proceeds to us.

and to add my man Tukso Okey, now thats something you never can explain.
Noma shes my girl beautiful person too.
Etherian and when he gets Mr.Charles E Bristol going its just a wonderful thing.
These are the ones I consistently hire at my venue. Which I have taken down thou for now maybe next year.
oh and my good friend who I pushed to get her but out there and sing is Taunter Goodnight.

Maybe Kom was having a bad night then, Luc. We've talked about this, and my experience has been totally different. Kom's played at Triumph Cove nearly every Thursday for the last two years, and while, yeah, he IS a character with strong opinions and very outspoken, he's a dear. Maybe a little like you, huh?

I really love Kumoso, too. I've been a fan of his since his 2nd performance in SL. I can't get to his shows as much as I'd like, but he also gives away mp3s of his music sort of open source (pay what you want). His help and concern when Phoe was in the hospital is very much appreciated.

The Velvet, been there a few times, but I logged out there once on my alt and when I logged back in (a couple months later) it wasn't there anymore... did they move? I'll have to look it up.

It's in the southeast corner of the Downtown sim, still going strong. Music and conversation are good. That is one of the joys of clubbing in SL that is NPIRL: that you can have conversations without straining your voice while music is playing. Of course, the dancing is virtual, but it can be aesthetically pleasing.

Seconding recommendations for the Velvet and Tiphares. I never have to mute anyone for stupidity in either place.
Madhu's Cafe has a Monday night world music show that's always good.
Frank's Jazz Club is *the* singles dance club for lonely desperate housewives, so if you're into that sort of thing (or people watching in general) it can be fun. Sim's always full - guess there's a lot of desperate housewives in SL.
Insilico is worth a visit just to see the build.

Both FAB and the Duchess are fun hangouts. SOME of the people at FAB get a little crazy if a male ALT TPs in, like he is carrying bubonic plague or something. Aside from that silliness, its a fun place, good djs, nice people etc. The Duchess is one of the best. I've NEVER had an unpleasant experience there. The clientele are accepting of my....somewhat unusual condition and one can generally expect INTELIGENT conversation which is a darned rarity in SL. When I get tired of standing around in the wallflower corners of the popular jazz places like Franks, Bogarts, et. al. The Duchess is a great place to go.
Franks? Forget about it. Nice place if you are a guy or part of a couple. If you're a single female, count on standing in the wallflower corner for at least an hour, then if you're lucky, someone MIGHT ask you to dance.

I'm not going to rant and rave about an off-the-cuff remark that may well be true in a statistical sense for all I know.
But places like Frank's are not about "desperation" for me, at least not in the sense you use above.
At the time's of day I generally play, most hangout places are empty. Frank's and its ilk are one of the few places I can go where I know a reasonable number of non-bot people will be. Its an excuse to get dressed up to the nines :
http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3473/3958427455_1c38eea8b3_o.png
and, perhaps, engage in a little harmless flirting. Nothing more.
As Sooz notes however, things seem to have changed over the years. There was a time when I could finish scripting for the night, don the glad rags, TP to Frank's or Phat Cats, and be dancing with a dutch film-student in 20 minutes.
Nowadays there seem to be more people just standing around than dancing. I don't get it. (And yes, I know, I know - they're all furiously cybering in IMs. But there are so many other venues where you can do that without having to pay a fortune to have your gown dry-cleaned afterwards. :D )
