I'm going to be in Dallas next week for a couple of days.
Any suggestions for concerts, etc. between the 20th and 22nd?
I've never been before, but I'd like to not be stuck in my hotel room all day.
thanks in advance.

check out Good Records...
1808 Greenville Ave.
Ask for CJ if he's there and he'll be able to hook you up with some great albums. As far as I know there aren't any shows 20-22nd except THE LIVING BLUE (never heard them) is playing an instore at Good Records at 4PM on the 20th.

I would just stay away from Deep Ellum unless there's a show at Gypsy. Ellum is a pile of vatos circling the same 4 streets in their cars over and over.
Go to Monkey Bar, Meridian Room (both in Fair Park). Lower Greenville has plenty of places too. Or you can go to Uptown (Upper Greenville) if you wanna hang at some snooty places.

Haha, I've had friends tell me the same thing about Deep Ellum. I mean, hell, Trees of all places closed because it was just getting overrun with gangs and nonsense like that.
True?

yup
deep ellum now has the 'guardian angels' rolling around there now because people were getting mugged and stabbed..

That's crazy. Was just telling a coworker today about how my band used to play there at all hours of the night back in high school (different band than I have now).
We were 17! not even old even to be in where we were playing! My dad found out were were playing at midnight at 1am and got super mad.

Oh, and I grew up about 45 minutes away in Keller.

Lots of businesses have been leaving Deep Ellum the past 1-2 years.
If you go a few blocks north though the Fair Park area isn't bad with:
-Monkey Bar (tiki bar)
-Double Wide (trailer themed bar with metal tornado spinning on roof, tornado footage on all the tvs and they serve mostly canned beer)
-Meridian Room(best food!)
-Ave Arts (after 2am byob dance parties every sat night)
-Bar of Soap(Bar with lots of washer/dryers in back so you can get drunk while gettin clean).And more lofts, advert firms, photo/art studios are around there.
