Thanks to the folks over at

joy:

DEGENERATES ABROAD
Degenerate GT moved off to Texas a while back and sent us this report:
I visited the coolest dive bar ever in Dallas over the weekend. It's called
Double-Wide. Half of the place is a bar/music venue, much like the Atomic was in
Athens. There's a courtyard in the middle, and the other half is a bar/lounge,
complete with wood paneling, macrame wall hangings, velvet paintings of semis,
and tacky embroidered couches, formica & chrome dinettes and James Brown playing
in the background. It doesn't sound as cool typed out, but when you walk in,
it's so cozy that it makes ya feel like you could run to the fridge, get out
some frozen lil debbies and kick your feet up in front of the window a/c. You
would have loved it. Fabulously tacky. Fucking awesome. I saw a band called Boys
named Sue. They somehow worked "lose yourself' into a hillbilly song and took
some fucking hilarious artistic license with some willie nelson songs.
If there was ANY venue fit to host bubbapalooza, it's fucking Double-Wide.
Saw a band called the FlameTrick Subs on Friday night. Their singer looked and
sounded a hellova lot like Ted Weldon. The standup bass player is missing a hand
and plays flawless bass with his nub. Their female drummer is hot, in a Buffy
Aguero cheerleader kinda way. Those guys cracked me up.
Played some cramps tunes too.
Texas=awesome.
