Louisville -- Venues and Bars
« on: October 04, 2005, 04:03:25 pm »
So I'm going to Ohio tomorrow to visit some people.  But I will be spending one night (Thursday) in Louisville to see Built to Spill at Headliner's Music Hall.  Do any of you know anything about the venue?  I read somewhere that it's something like a 'no-frills' music hall.  So does that mean no booze?  Will I have to get shitfaced before I attend the show?  And if so, what's a good bar in the downtown area?

Headliners is not really downtown, but it is a couple of blocks away from where I used to live.  I've never been to a show there so I don't know about the availabilty of booze on site.  Two suggestions of good bars that are very close -- Spring Street Inn is about a block up Payne Street to the east.  Baxter Station is about 3 blocks up Payne Street in the other direction.  Spring Street is more of drinkin' bar.  Baxter Station is nicer and has really excellent food.

There are also tons of bars on Bardstown Road/Baxter Ave.  Also, several more upscale/neighborhood type bars on Frankfort Ave, which is one block over from Payne Street once you get past Spring Street.

Bozack, Beatrice, any input?  Where is Bozack anyway?  He and Zart have disappeared on us.

Last I heard, Bozack was having some issues with regards to his lifestyle. He might not have computer access at the moment -- sucky, but explicable. It's Zartan I'm starting to get worried about, truth be told. You alive out there, dude?

Zart got hit by the "other duties as assigned" clause at work. But he's still very much alive and occasionally active at Last.fm

Whoa, I'm here. Yeah, Headliners has quite an extensive booze catalogue. Cahoots is a good bar on Bardstown road.

Alright tracker-keeper of the board, where's wombat?  She hasn't been around for a while, and she is missed!

P.S. calling you the tracker-keeper reminded me of the Trapper-Keeper, remember that thing?  It was awesome.  I would fill mine until the velcro wouldn't close anymore.

According to this encyclopedia, the wombat's natural enemy is the dingo.

Court?  You and Scooby head down to the zoo and see what I can find.  Fred, you stay here and make sure Old Man Withers stays put.  Daphne and I will take the Mystery Machine head down to the airport to pick up some tickets to Austrailia.  We'll meet back at the gates to the abandoned amusement part at dusk to check in.  Let's go team!

I knew you were going to be Velma at the first line of your post. She was pretty hot in that leather outfit in the second movie.

I have not been eaten by dingos.  Internet access at work has been down all day.  Which of course means you have all gone CRAZY posting and it's going to take hours just to read it.

Yeah, what gives man?

If I ever go a day or two without checking, everyone goes apeshit in posting.  If I check a couple or so times a day, it's dead.

So did you drink at any of the bars we recommended or just at Headliners?
