Few experiences are as memorable as a visit to a Lone Star honky tonk, saloon or dance hall retaining a down-home ambiance. Texas writer Shirely Jinkins has covered the music scene for decades
and has carefully selected venerable watering holes and dance halls that deserve landmark status. ?Gruene Hall, Luckenbach Dance Hall, Willie's Place, Poodie's, Billy Bob's and countless more
genuine Lone Star establishments are profiled in this nifty pocket-sized, valued-priced guide that should be kept handy in every Texan's glove compartment or guitar case. Passing through Mason?
Don't miss the London Dance Hall nearby. Heading to Big Bend? Don't pass up Railroad Blues in Alpine or the Starlight Theatre in Terlingua. Approaching Abilene in late December? You must boot
scoot at the century-plus Cowboy Christmas Ball at Anson's Pioneer Hall a few miles north.
