Many great locations and famous dining establishments are found on the strip. On the corner of Olive Street and Sunset Blvd, in the heart of the strip you'll find the famous Comedy Store, Skybar and House of Blues. Beginning in 1979, The Comedy Store served for many years as the host location for the annual HBO Young Comedians specials. Also that year, stand-up comedians formed a short-lived labor union and demanded to be paid for their appearances at the Comedy Store.

The House of Blues is a chain of 13 live music concert halls and restaurants in major markets throughout the United States. House of Blues first location was in Cambridge's Harvard Square. It was opened in 1992 by Isaac Tigrett, co-founder of Hard Rock Cafe, and Dan Aykroyd, star of The Blues Brothers. House of Blues is considered a major venue for touring bands and the venue on Hollywood's Sunset Strip is no different. Cruise down the block any night of the week for major entertainment at these Hollywood hot spots.
