February 07, 2012Stubb’s has helped many bands and musicians gain some major exposure in the indie music scene and now attracts large, national acts. But Stubb’s still stays true to its indie roots, and the bands that play there are usually soon on their way to gaining a larger following.

February 07, 2012There’s a lot of Austin music history contained within the walls of Antone’s. Legends and major acts such as Stevie Ray Vaughn got a major push through performances at Antone’s, and now many artists are attracted to this historical venue, hoping to also get their own major exposure on a larger stage.

February 28, 2012Kung-Fu Saloon’s brick-and-wood bar setting features both old-school video games and booze from abroad. You and a date can take a trip down memory lane as you best each other at Ms. Pac-Man and debate whether or not her inclusion into the video game canon advances feminist values in a positive light. Or you could just drink some sake and giggle at each other

February 21, 2012Yes, The Hole in the Wall has its grungy, dirty, rock-loving persona. But make no mistake: its stages are primed for local rockabilly, roots and classic country acts throughout the week.

July 24, 2012You could end up at some dirty shot bar that probably won’t exist in a month, or you could spend an evening downtown at a legendary, authentically Austin locale. Cedar Street has live music, great martinis, and a whole lot of history.

February 21, 2012Ginny’s is the Church of Country, and it even has the steeple to prove it. This Little Longhorn will make you want to boot scoot, but the space is tiny, so you may have to step out back for a proper two-step.

February 14, 2012This small hotel has a big reputation, usually selling out for SXSW season months in advance; it’s probably because there’s no better place to be deep in the heart of Austin but still feel like you’re tucked away in a private retreat. Document your trip with one of the hotel’s typewriters or polaroid cameras, available for guest use. Indulge in an in-room mani/pedi, and if you’re staying in, they’ve also got a music and movie library

February 09, 2012The Green Chile Queso at Torchy’s will change the way you think about cheese; served as a side, the spicy mix is topped with guac, queso fresco (that’s TWO types of cheese, if you’re counting), cilantro and the house Diablo sauce. It’s completely acceptable to ditch the chips and order some on top of your favorite taco.

February 09, 2012Rich and flavorful without the “Did I seriously just eat all that?” regret that usually settles in after a queso binge, Trudy’s take is the perfect compliment to their huge dinner plates (and goes particularly well with the Mini Stuffed Avocado starter). They’re is also famous for their salsa selection — we challenge you to try ’em all.
