Hello, gnux,
I'd like to thank you for introducing me to this musical form. For my
own information, and in case others like me weren't aware of it, I
wanted a definition and history of rebetiko.
Noted and Notorious
http://museumstudies.si.edu/movingon/project/hellenic/bouzouki.html
Next I wanted to hear for myself what this music sounds like, so I
headed to Amazon and found some sample audio files from a CD called
'Today's Rebetiko Song, Vol. 1.' There are five songs sampled, in
Windows Media and in RealOne Player formats. Very nice, but too brief.
Left me wanting more.
Rebetiko Song, Vol. 1.

Now, for the harder part -- finding local venues where this music is
played as the norm, rather than in a concert presentation.
According to this site, one can hear rebetiko in restaurants of that
name.
"Songs play an important role in Greek culture. Rebetika music is a
type of music that is distinctly Greek yet no one knows quite where it
came from. You can find Greek music at restaurants called Rebetiko
where you can listen to live music and feast on Greek food. They are
very popular places with Greeks on every night of the week and are
especially crowded on weekends."

Here's one -- "Those interested in traditional Greek rebetiko music
should definitely stop by here, one of the city's best clubs featuring
excellent musicians and a unique ambience."
