    Hello Sebastian,

    I live in Paris, France. Maybe I can help you for some of your researches
    (just for clubs):
    Here are some of the places I went to and that I liked :
    - Opus Cafe (167 quai de Valmy - 10th district of Paris) - Jazz, funk, wide
    range of music
    - Cithea (114 rue Oberkampf - 11th) - modern jazz mixed with other styles
    - Le Reservoir (16 rue de la Forge Royale - 11th) - various (jazz, rock,
    funk)
    - You have also some "house-boats" (peniches), which have a lot of different
    styles at : Quai de la Gare - 13th

    But I was told that some clubs were good, as:
    - Le Baiser Sale (58 rue des Lombards - 1st district of Paris) - a lot of
    jazz, with jam cessions (everybody can play), acid-jazz, rock,...
    - le Gibus (18 rue du Faubourg-du-Temple - 11th) - House, techno,
    hip-hop,...
    - La Fleche d'Or (102 rue Bagnolet - 20th) - Raggae, Hip-Hop, jungle, rock,
    latino,... (it's an old railway station, interesting to see, but special
    atmosphere...)
    - Glaz'Art (7-15 avenue de la Porte-de-la-Vilette - 19th) - jazz, rock and
    others - I was told it's real good quality.

    I hope you will find some places that will interest you.

    Good trip, hope you will enjoy it !

    Virginie
