The Rodeo Bar has a very special place in my heart.  When I moved here to go to college it was not too far from where I lived.  For me, it was like heaven on Earth.  I always got in (and served) there.  They had FREE music and FREE all-you-can-eat peanuts.  As a result, I was a constant fixture there.  Though my memories are hazy at best, I have managed to excavate a few.

– Going up to dance on the stage with an awesome rockabilly band.
– Knocking over all the rockabilly band’s equipment with my enthusiastic dancing.
– Many, many beers.
– An unfortunate allergic reaction one night on the part of my boyfriend.

[Not in that order]

This Thursday, June 3rd, Nation Beat is playing a FREE concert at Rodeo.  This is a band that NPR’s Banning Eyre has called 'œthe most original and alluring fusion group I have heard in years.'

So go on down and make some of your own hazy memories.

Oh yah and if you get there at dinner time, don’t forget to order the killer tuna steak.
