NightlifeBy and large, people in Yellowknife aren't scared of a drink, and nightlife revolves around bars and pubs. Increasingly, there's a music scene in Yellowknife; a number of local bands have developed national followings. Officially called Bad Sam's, the Gold Range Tavern, in the Gold Range Hotel, 5010 50th St. (tel. 867/873-4441), is better known by its local nickname -- "Strange Range." The Range is an occasionally rip-roaring tavern that attracts the whole gamut of local and visiting characters in search of some after-dinner whoopee. You don't come here for a quiet evening, but you can't say you've seen Yellowknife if you haven't seen the Strange Range. The pleasant Black Knight Pub, 4910 49th St. (tel. 867/920-4041), has a selection of about 15 beers on tap, with an emphasis on English and Irish brews, as well as the largest selection of scotches in town (somewhere around 120!). It's open 11am until 2am, every day but Sunday. The Top Knight, a nightclub upstairs from the pub, offers dancing and informal dining.
