I am going to New York City, and I want to see a good jazz funk band for saturday night. Where is a good place

I just want a cool spot where i can chill out, listen to some good music and throw back some beer

Ah, you want to go to the Blue note in Manhattan on w.3 and 6th. You may also want to try the Village Vanguard, which is one of the best jazz clubs in NYC. VV is located in the west village as well.

Good luck!!
