A small doorway on a busy West Village street leads you down into Café Wha--underground den of live music. Though the bands aren't ones that you are likely to see on the cover of Rolling Stone magazine anytime soon, they are very talented. A Brazilian band usually plays on Mondays, and every Wednesday-Sunday the Café Wha Band takes to the small stage. This varied group changes out its singers and can play anything from Fleetwood Mac to Bonnie Tyler to Bob Marley. As house bands go, they are a cut above, and the energy definitely picks up when they start playing. The staff is friendly, and as attentive as they can be in such a busy place. For the claustrophobic: the place has a low ceiling and is often packed, but if you can handle the cozy surroundings, you'll probably have a great time here. Stop by on Wednesday or Sunday, when there is no cover, and get there before 10 to get the best seats. -Philip McCluskey
