A four star dinner menu and a state-of-the-art sound and light system offer a full night of dinner and dancing. The heavy dose of '70s and '80s favorites (Pat Benatar, Al Green, Pennywise etc.) attracts a 30- and 40-something audience of party couples, risqué divorcees and retro-music revelers.Tickets: Ticketmaster, www.canyonclub.net or Canyon Club box office.
