What is the best town in Salvador to listen to live music and what are the least expensive accomodations?
The old part of town called "Pelourinho" is a good place to look for live music. The famous Salvador band Olodum often has live gigs in Pelourinho. Another place that is not as touristy as Pelourinho is "Rio Vermelho" where you have some good clubs too with live music. I don´t know what is happening there right now, but try and visit the tourist information right by the elevator. I have found them t be extremely helpful in terms of guiding me towards good live music in Salvador in the nonj touristy places.

The best "town" in Salvador? Salvador itself is a city. #1 has given you some very good suggestions about two neighborhoods in which tourists might find music. The least expensive accomodations would be a bunk bed in a hostel dorm. There are many hostels, all at more or less the same rate. Google them. The main tourist neighborhoods with the most accomodation choices are the bustling historic district of Pelourinho and the first beach neighborhood of Barra, about 10 minutes away.
