Fingerpistol is one of my favorite Austin bands. Their original music is sardonic and cool and also makes for great dancing. This is “You Lie”.

Craig Howell informing us how he got to Memphis.

We haven’t seen Craig Howell in ages but will get to see him and his band tonight at Mercer Dancehall.

The second show at ABGBs is Lynndigo. I would call their sound ‘Jazzy’ in a loose sense of the term. The lead singer reminds me of Ricki Lee Jones and Nancy Sinatra.

“House Money” by the Trahan Brothers.

It’s the Trajan Brothers tonight at ABGBs and they are celebrating their release of “Feel More Fine”

Tumbleweed Hill plays for the last time at Mercer Dance Hall on 12/7/25. The hall closes at the end of the year.

We’re taking a break from dancing tonight and will be enjoying a John Lennon tribute concert at ACL in downtown Austin. It will be performed by the #9 Orchestra.

Marley Hale plays the blues at The White Horse in Austin TX 12/5/2025.

3 Chord Rodeo at Mercer on 10/12/25

Happy Birthday John Lennon My gal and I dancing at Strawberry Fields in Central Park

Warren Hood and his band are quite good! He’s a rockin’ fiddle player with a great voice. The choice of music is not typical dance hall fare, but excellent nonetheless. He’s a Wednesday regular at ABGB.

Don’t ever, ever go to the Cotton Country Club in Granger Tx. That CCC might as well be a KKK. Wholly extreme right wing establishment.

Dancing is in Granger TX tonight. The Wyatt C. Ellis band plays.

Sunny Sweeney at Coupland 10/4/25

Ellis Bullard is opening for Sunny Sweeney and is rocking the place.

Hard to believe, but this will be our last time dancing at Coupland ever. 😔 Sunny Sweeney is playing. I’m out of touch with newer artists, so forgive me that. She has tons of merch.

More Weldon Henson

Two Steppin’ Tuesdays by Weldon Henson. He plays at The Broken Spoke every Tuesday.

Dancing will be after BBQ in Elgin this evening. We’re going to see Weldon Henson at Coupland Dance Hall. There are only a few more shows before the hall closes for good.

The Westside Cowboys at Skinny Dennis in Brooklyn NY. For some reason, the young crowd loves Country Roads and the band played it well.

The Westside Cowboys playing 9 to 5 at Waylon’s.

Dancing at the Waylon in NYC tonight!

Strawberry Fields in Central Park. Imagine

The Pearl Snaps at Mercer Dance Hall
