Houston: Booze & Bokeh - 11-19-2008, 11:02 AM




This is one Meetup you do not want to miss! Tired of meeting up at coffee houses and family restaurants? Do you want something a little "different" location wise? If so, then this meetup is definitely one you want to make it out to!


Location:
Dirt Bar
222 Yale St
Houston, TX 77007
(713) 426-4222

Map Located HERE.


Dirt Bar is a true "Rock Bar" in every sense of the name... But don't let that deter you from coming out. I've reserved their special VIP room for us photogs so that we have a secluded area where he can hang out, talk shop and oh yea throw a couple back!

As far as the location, there are no flashy signs announcing its whereabouts so if your're looking for that you'll pass the place up. Ha! Simply look for a small self standing building on the east side of Yale St. with a simple neon sign that reads "222". That's it.. You've found it... That's the place!

One more thing... Expect to have a great time!

See ya there!

When bands come through town on tour...if they go out after their show they go to Dirt Bar...Foo Fighters...Mudvayne...30 Secs To Mars...So does everyone in the industry.

If you know the Sunset strip, this is the Rainbow Bar & Grill in Houston...sans the food.

If we have a good number of people, the owner will open the VIP room to us.


I expect you all to go...so call your babysitters and parole officers and warn them.

Any questions?...

That's what I'm guessing...sometimes we've gone out Thanksgiving night but of course the family guilt trip kicks in wanting us to stay...

This should be just right...good holiday venting...

I revised the time because I think some thought the event was two days based on the end time being 2am on the 29th.

It now reads 10pm - 1130pm in the thread title so that should help... just know the actual "end time" is the same as "closing time!" hehe 2am
