BOOTS, BOOGIE & HONKY TONK
Friday | 8pm | Paper Tiger | $20-25
Here’s the lowdown on the beer-drinkin-est, boot-scootin-est, rowdy good time you’re likely to scare up anywhere in town this Friday. The show is called Boots, Boogie, and Honky-Tonk for a reason. There ain’t hardly another man in Texas who’s as honky-tonk as headliner Dale Watson. Meanwhile, the show will also feature performances from locals The Three Timers and DT Buffkin, both of which bring some serious honky-tonk themselves. If that sounds like so much fun it ought to be illegal—don’t worry, it’s for a good cause. All proceeds will benefit young people living in San Antonio Housing Authority’s Public Housing and Section 8 programs.
