The Spot - Los Angeles - Terri Nunn

 

    
Singer Terri Nunn still takes our breath away. As the front woman of iconic new wave band Berlin, Nunn became one of the greatest women in rock with hits like "The Metro," "Sex (I'm a…)" and the Oscar-winning "Take My Breath Away" from Top Gun. Nunn has since put together a new Berlin lineup. Her latest album All the Way In features electrifying live tracks from a recent show in Orange County. The set includes both old favorites and soon-to-be-released songs.
 
Vegetarian Spot:
"Hugo's in Sherman Oaks is my favorite, and there's also one in West Hollywood. It isn't an exclusively vegetarian place, but there are so many fantastic vegetarian dishes, I still haven't tried them all. Give me time."
12851 Riverside Drive, Studio City, California, (818) 761-8985
8401 Santa Monica Boulevard, West Hollywood, California, (323) 654-3993

Dance Spot:
"I like Goth clubs, like Bar Sinister in Hollywood. I'm a closet Goth and still proud of my duet with Andrew Eldritch of Sisters of Mercy on the song 'Under The Gun.' I love to dance to Goth music, plus I love all the black/purple/red couture."
1652 N. Cherokee Avenue, Los Angeles, California, 323) 769-7070
    
Rock Spot:
"House of Blues rocks for so many reasons. As an artist, there are no better places of that size to play for great sounds and lights. They also have really good food, which most rock clubs don't."
8430 Sunset Boulevard, West Hollywood, California, (323) 848-5100
 
Cocktail Spot:
"The Standard Rooftop Bar downtown is my favorite cocktail lounge, especially the middle of the week. It's quiet, above the chaos and has a great view. I thank God I have the kind of job where I can even go in the middle of the week!"
550 S. Flower Street, Los Angeles, California, (213) 892-8080
   
Record Spot:
"Amoeba in Hollywood is really almost the only record store left anywhere. It feels good that they're truly independent, not a chain."
6400 W. Sunset Boulevard, Los Angeles, California, (323) 245-6400

Book Spot:
"The most local bookstore for me is Barnes & Noble. They do a bookstore right. My idea of a great afternoon is reading books, and they have loads of couches and chairs and a Starbucks!"
12136 Ventura Boulevard, Studio City, California, (818) 505-9528

Specialty Spot:
"Trader Joe's has a huge variety of organic food for frickin' low prices, too. I love them!"
14119 Riverside Drive, Sherman Oaks, California, (818) 789-2771
   
Guitar Spot:
"Guitar Center is the best music store. It's the place everyone goes, and that's because GC knows what musicians need and almost always has it for a decent price."
7425 W. Sunset Boulevard, Los Angeles, California, (323) 874-1060
 
Gear Spot:
"You can't beat Fry's Electronics in Burbank for selection and price when it comes to gadgets. It's the big-kid toy store!"
2311 N. Hollywood Way, Burbank, California, 818) 526-8100

Hotel Spot:
"The Four Seasons in Westlake Village is a great little hideaway. It has a peaceful, relaxing setting with an amazing spa tucked away from the craziness of the city."
