I am going to amsterdam in november my first time, and as I am a very big fan of Reggae music I wonder if anyone here can recommend a few good reggae bars/clubs ... and of course some coffeeshops which mainly play reggae .. ?

and I read about CS "Dreadrock" or "Easy Times" is doing reggae as well would be nice to get some reviews of people who were there ?

but actually I am looking more for a "real" club I mean a reggae club/bar where you can drink and dance a whole night long ... :P

Check if Melkweg has any reggae when you are there. Doublereggae is very cheesy by the way (in my opinion)

I thought melkeweg was a venue not a CS???

Nestaman I saw Burning Spear in the Paradiso in 2006 and it was amazing, check out if anything good is coming up there @ www.paradiso.nl 8)

I am a massive Reggae fan too...saw Black Uhuru at Paradiso and that was amazing especially being able to smoke in the club.

They are playing again soon in Zaandam.

Still looking for a shop where they play decent reggae so loud you loose you self in music, like is possible when at home..
