Anyway, the club has a full bar, so you're covered there--wine, draft beer, spirits. But it's the music you're here for. It's great!!! Tickets are between 15-20 francs. And the Jazz is great. I've seen everything from experimental stuff on the piano to straight ahead swing and the traditional blues played by folks who may have never set foot in the U.S. No credit cards--cash only! Music most every Fri/Sat and some Sundays as well as mid-week. Check the website: http://www.amr-geneve.ch Have fun!!

I've watched people find the love of their life here and also lose themselves in the same night. The only drawback is the drink prices. 7.50€ for a pint of beer is a bit steep, but no cover charge so that's cool.

I visited this club recently, which is in Vieux Lyon, the intact old city. The music was very…read moregood. The man who appears to be the owner plays drums. There is a bar and limited food offerings. One then carries his or hers drink and food downstairs to a very small space. Listeners perch on chairs elbow to elbow and place drinks on small trays fastened to pedestals. I wouldn't bother with the food--it's not that good, and it's tricky to manage eating and moving out of the way for other people. The couple next to me said that they assumed all jazz clubs were like this, and I explained that they are not. Americans would generally find that space uncomfortable. It's true that Vieux Lyon is very concentrated, but I was in comfortable restaurants. The main problem for me was the rudeness of the staff during intermission. I left after the first set because of the nastiness of a young woman working the bar and a young man who had some kind of function. Who knows what? I attempted to carry my glass upstairs, and he yelled at me "Madam!" and grabbed the glass. When I ordered "cidre" at he bar, the young woman laughed at me and said that she didn't understand what I was saying. "Cidre" (cider) is not a difficult word. I speak French well enough so that I could joke with a guy working security at the airport when he removed my watch and said that he would take it home for his wife. I said that she deserved better. He said he would give it to his mistress. I can order cidre. The French have a reputation for rudeness, but I have found that they are generally polite and kind. Not these people. I have been twice to Aux Petits Joueurs in Parus and will go there again. The music is good, the food is good, and the people are nice.
