Washington DC

While it's true that Washington, D.C. hosts the nation's most famous house at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave, and that many of its citizens work in politics and non-profits, DC is not as quiet as it appears on first glance. Sure, most tourists head to the National Mall or the Smithsonian Museums, but if you look a little deeper you'll find a thriving culture. Washington, D.C. is home to more than a few jazz greats (including Duke Ellington) and the city's live music tradition continues to run strong at its legendary clubs and bars.
