I'm Going to Disneyland! (But what else is there?)

I'm going to Disneyland for a long weekend with randomly family members who really aren't very interesting, I've been there recently enough where there won't be much new to see or do, and we're going to be there long enough that I may very well get very bored.

So, I was wondering if there was anything in close proximity to the parks and Downtown Disney that was not quite "harrowing" in nature, but could prove an interesting experience without requiring a rental car. Something along the lines of a decent night club (the more rock-oriented, the better), or maybe a mall with interesting clothing that was not covered in mouse ears, or a bookstore with a coffee house and lonely, chatty tourists or something.

So. Anyone know any near-Disney hangouts or sights worth seeing?

    There's Knotts Berry Farm, Medieval Times, The Pirates Show, Ripley's Believe It or Not, Wax Museum.

    Thats all in Buena park, which is pretty much right down the street from Disneyland.

    I used to spend a lot of time in that area with an ex.

    If there's anything else you want to know about the area, just ask, I'll let you know to the best of my knowledge.

    What he said.

    I just got back from there about 2 months ago, all of those are pretty damn close to Disneyland and offer up something different.

    Also I know you just went there but don't forget while your irritating relatives are in Disneyland, head over to California Adventure or vice versa.

    When I went I had my in laws with me and this method of avoidance worked out great. If I wanted to ride Star Tours 8 times in a row I didn't have to hear anybody's yap :)

    Oh they're not irritating, just boring. Mostly I'm just trying to take full advantage of having a three night hotel stay in a much more interesting part of the state.

    Are there any decent night clubs around there?

    Where do I go to party with Jasmine and Belle after hours?

    Okay, so the Blue Bayou is a club? What's it like when they kick the kiddies out?

    There's a few different island things. And I'm thinking Blue Bayou only has Club 33, which I can't get in to...

    So where's this club? What section of the park...?

    Disney's website is obnoxiously difficult to navigate. D:

    I'm pretty sure that's just part of Disney Downtown.

    From what I've seen on searches, Anaheim pretty much sucks aside from the resorts, and maybe some shopping. D:
