Rate and Write a Review There are plenty of good reasons that Toon's is one of the busiest bars in town. Mostly, it's the quality bands and DJs that pump up the wide-grinned dancers packed on the dance floor. Local bar bands such as the Gents, Uncle Melvin and Kissing Sabrina are regulars on the weekly live-music lineup, as are up-and-coming local acts. And Smash Mouth played at Toon's long before it earned heavy-rotation on the radio. The DJs that spin between sets keep you guessing, playing anything from modern rock to techno to funk. Toon's offers multiple diversions as well. In addition to darts and arcade games, pool sharks can congregate in the Felt Room, which houses seven tables and a bar. And then there's the Bubble Machine, which manages to attract even the most timid wallflowers to the center of the jumping dance floor. Sundays are the weekly Millennium Funk Party and Mondays feature DJ Jazzy C. Oh yeah, the cover is always less than $4. -- Bernice Yeung
