The Cairo Times and the Cairo Cafe both include good listings. Other entertainment guides can be found in up-market cafes.
Don't forget about the Croc Guide.
Also pick up the Croc free pocket guide to entertainment and dining in Cairo. Very funny, bitingly honest - and all the live music events. It's all over town in most cafes, bars and cultural centres.
The Cairo Times has stopped publication and I found the Cairo Cafe unhelpful.Send your feedback or queries to been.there@guardian.co.uk
