      As the Alamo Drafthouse’s adult entertainment emporium, the Highball has no equal in town when it comes to passing time creatively. With six themed karaoke rooms and a large downstairs stage that hosts regular karaoke events, the Highball delivers plenty of options when it comes to exploring your American Idol dreams.
