The Must-Do List: Snag a VIP Membership to House of Blues’ Foundation Room

You’ll be treated like a rock star inside this swanky VIP club — and might see ones like Metallica and Green Day, who stop by after performing at the downstairs music venue. Decked out in plush red velvet couches, exotic tapestry and gold Buddha figurines, this secret hideaway — access it via the private elevator in the back of the House of Blues — is an escape from realism with after-parties, flowing cocktails and a rooftop patio that overlooks the hijinks on East Fourth Street.  Bonus: Use your membership to score access to presale tickets and artist meet-and-greets. 308 Euclid Ave., Cleveland, 216-523-2583, houseofblues.com/cleveland
