No Luckenbach?  Wtffail

Trees was closed from 2005-2009, but it going strong again.




The guy who currently owns Trees is also about to reopen The Bomb Factory, which has been closed since the late 90s.

Yeah, I saw Tool, Faith No More, and White Zombie there in the 90s.  Good times.










You gotta hand it to Clint Barlow for reopening Trees, and now The Bomb Factory.  With these and other venues, Dallas is really doing quite well in the live music department these days.

Came here to post both of those. Though the Armadillo is long gone.

I'd add Steamboat to the list as well.

Hole In The Wall as well.

No, I think it's a church now, or at least it used to be.

The Mohawk in Austin has had some pretty decent shows lately.

Trees really should have been on that list. I live near Denton and never heard of the two places that made the list from there. I use to spend a ton of time in Deep Ellum in the early 2000s and Trees was the best. It felt great to go back there once they reopened, and I can't wait to get into the Bomb Factory when Ministry comes to town.

Billy Bob's in Fort Worth was great back in the 80's-90's.  Had a buddy with a Winnebago with a pull-out side room (that right there will tell ya how long ago this was) that we'd take to Billy Bob's and camp on the parking lot for the entire weekend.  The music and the beer was great and the chicks were everywhere.

Schroeder Hall is just up the road from me, local bands and a few old-time big names still play there. Second oldest dance hall in Texas.

The original Gilley's is long since gone. Houston Chronicle had an article in 2013 where Gilley said he wanted to open a new club in Pasadena, and was looking for investors.

Armadillo Palace is still open on Kirby.

Dan's Silverleaf is probably the most prominent venue in Denton.  I caught Snarky Puppy there a while back and it was AWESOME!

While Gilley's has been long gone, it still put Pasadena on the map for live music, and helped to propel John Travolta's movie career.
