Coffeehouses abound in Austin and many of them sell beer, as does this place. That makes them a bar too. This is a good one, I met the owner and you can see him walking towards me at about three quarters of the way through the video. Hell of a nice guy with a popular business.
As an aside, I recorded a band from Norman, Oklahoma on their deck last year at this time. I'll attach it to this video. Caution, they are loud and distorted but they still sound good. http://progresscoffee.com/

I was not aware of Alton Rex but thanks to you, and the power of the internet, I am now.

Did I see Alton Rex on the music calendar? Gary and I saw him at Charles and Myrtle's in Chattanooga. He and Gary have contacted each other a few times since then. Do you know who he is? btw...that coffee place didn't have any BEER :(
