    Went to the Continental Club last night and had a blast. What a cool joint. Heard a great band...had a few beers. If anyone is ever in the Austin area, you must go and check this place out!

    You don't say. ;)

    I assume you've never been to the Lonestar Roundup before?

    Yeah, that place is pretty cool. They should host some after carshow party there once a year. That'd be awesome. ;)

    It's a great place to hide from Mexicans with murder in their eyes.

    Glad you had fun. The Continental rules.

    If'n your still in town, stop by Ginny's Little Longhorn on Friday night. Good band and a cool little dive.

    If you are going to be off topic, it might as well be about the Continental Club as it is the Hot Rod Mecca of Austin and the coolest bar in town. Every year, the Kontinentals throw a car show called the Lone Star Round Up. The hub of the show is the Continental Club. It's a legendary place around these parts...

    Welcome to the HAMB. Stick around a while and read. You'll be surprised how much you can learn about Hot Rods and Customs...

    What about the Houston Continental Club? I haven't heard much about it on here?

    Is it as good as it's Austin counter part?

    The Houston club is cool... one of the better places in town to see the live music I like. It's the spittin' image of the Austin club... just a bit bigger, with a patio out back, but minus the cool 'main drag' vibe you get on Congress in Austin.

    Big E's 'Rock Baby Rock It!' is this Saturday at the Houston club... be there.

    I wouldn't say that. Been to both and love em' both the same. Almost give the edge to Houston but only because it is a scooch bigger.
