My eight favorite Austin music clubs and dive bars
Beerland sign
Stubbs BBQ (Great outdoor shows. I've been to five shows there, and they were all excellent. A great crowd, mixing cowboys, students, fans, and tourists. Grab a Shiner's Bock and enjoy.)
Jimmy LaFave playing with Lucinda Williams and Kevin Welch at Austin's Hole In The Wall (one of my favorite Austin dives, and where Roger Wallace plays regularly)
Hole In The Wall (A most excellent dive, a couple of blocks from Ruby's BBQ, my second favorite Austin barbecue spot...after The Salt Lick).
Guero's (An indoor restaurant with very good Tex-Mex food. But I usually hang out at their outdoor music court with excellent slurpy-machine Margaritas. Guero's is located next door to my favorite hotel, The Hotel San Jose).
The Continental Club (Across the street from The San Jose and the Austin Motel, and Guero's...often featuring classic country and Texas Blues).
Beerland (A great rockin' club, near Stubbs and Emo's. Beer and rock...a classic pairing).
Emo's (Punk, alt, rock down the block from Stubbs).
Antone's (A classic Austin joint, often with big touring shows).
Ginny's Little Longhorn Saloon (The Austin home of honky-tonk. A great dive. If you're lucky, you might be there on a night when Dale Watson is playing. There is never a cover. Don't miss Sundays, when they play Chicken S**t Bingo,...wherever the chicken defecates is the next number).
Ginny's
