    Anyone ever been to one of these? Specifically, the one in Fort Worth? We are supposed to meet some friends there and I have no idea what to expect. Thanks.

    You know that group of 6.0 (out of 10) bachelorette groups that you see from time to time around whatever town you're in? Expect that kind of crowd, or chain-smoking lake lizards. Oh, and a group of foul-mouthed piano players with a skill for inserting as much nonsensical crap into whatever Kenny Chesney cover song that above mentioned bachelorette-like group screams him to play over and over. Toned down a bit due to being a weekday.

    yeah it's clean and fairly fun up until about 10PM. Then it just gets stupid, as the above posted alluded to. Haven't been in years.

    so you're telling me that a bunch of 40 something parents in Fort Worth to watch their kids play in a basketball tournament is not their normal class of customer???

    I am not allowed to go to the one in Austin anymore, but yeah, they're fun.

    I'm having flashbacks to Pete's (when there was only one piano) and Steve played the Pussycat song at least once a night. I think 6th St was fun back then but I really can't remember much.

    It's ok if you can tolerate it. It's not much fun in a small group, or if you have to stand all night.

    TexasRx: I remember those days with Steve. It's an abomination now or maybe I'm just older.
