I've seen some strange things in my time, but this is a first...:scratch2:

Welcome to town! if you're hungry, head over to Baker's Ribs on I-30@Beltline Rd, or their store in Deep Ellum on Commerce. Among the best in the city (the "greats" have all gone, and we're left with the "goods"). Sonny Bryan's on Inwood @ Harry Hines is great for atmosphere, and the Q is decent.
Lookin' for used vinyl? Half Price Books on NW Hwy @ Hwy 75 is a good stop (with a fun German restaurant behind it). Forever Young Records in Grand Prairie on 360 is incredible (rock, blues, jazz, folk, gospel)... and they know it and price their stuff accordingly.

Wish I had more time. I was only in town two nights; I am about to head out to the airport. I ate at Mi Cocina last night, very loud but good food and great crowd.
No BBQ, but Tex mex is Texas also!

Ahhh... There's a new bar in my old neighborhood that serves old-style cocktails. a real trip to go to, with excellent mixologists on board.
It's called Deep Ellum.
I wonder if it gets it's name from that town?
I assume Deep ellum is a town, am I correct?

The bar near you probably got it's name from Leadbelly's "Deep Ellum Blues".
Deep Ellum was/is the neighborhood adjacent to the far eastern end of Elm Street (one of the three "main" streets through downtown Dallas, and therefore deep Elm). It's famous as a German/Jewish/African-American community. It's Blues Scene was legendary, sprouting and hosting such luminaries as Blind Lemon Jefferson, Robert Johnson, Huddie Ledbetter, and Bessie Smith. All of Robert Johnson's recordings were made there.
You would have liked it in the 1980s through the mid-'90s.
Today, it's a place where white suburban kids go to get drunk, tattooed, and rolled.

Did anyone ever eat at Billy Blues on Richmond ( I think) in Houston when it was open? Darn good live blues bands/Performers and pretty good BBQ also. They had a giant saxaphone outside of the building that used VW hoods as the valves. One other thing about the place is they had original pictures of artists such as Gatemouth Brown, Muddy Waters etc. It was a very cool place:thmbsp:
I was the lead electrician on that job! It got so wild and wooly, the neighborhood filed charges on them for disturbing the peace. Fabulous Thunderbirds opened their first show. Most of the materials used in the "Smoke Sax" were electrical conduits and fittings, that we supplied the artist.
Oh,... GREAT BBQ!
Sorry the pic is so small, the bottom curve of the sax IS a VW bug.
The expanding "business end" of the Sax was flexible PVC wrappeed around a re-bar frame.
The mouth piece you see at the top is a full sized surf board.
edit: sorry, didn't mean to screw up the thread.
