No matter what your taste in music is, there's always a point in life when you need to bang your head, a lot. And if you happen to be in Tirana, you must go spend some fun time at Tirana Rock Cafe. This place has live shows only on weekends and sometimes Thursdays.
Some of the greatest Albanian Rock Bands perform there, mostly covers so you don't have to worry if you have never heard of the band playing. The shows start around 23:00 and the bands keep playing till 03:00. If you want to find a table though, you have to go there like one or two hours earlier. The entry is always free and drinks are very cheap compared to other clubs , especially beer.
P.S: You might want to listen to Bon Jovi, Aerosmith and Guns N' Roses again just so you can remember the lyrics in order to sing along.
