Busted booths, scuffed floors, and cans of Lone Star straight from the 12-pack box are what you can expect from this no-frills honky-tonk. That, and good music. Roots-rockers Macon Greyson and country standard-bearers King Bucks are regulars. Jack Ingram and Eleven Hundred Springs have both recorded there, and here's hoping more bands follow suit. Even without bands, though, you can spend hours there reading the stickers and graffiti--or add your own scribblings. Hell, they'll even give you the marker.
