    Anyone live in EADO? There are some 2 bedroom 1800 sqft townhouses over there going for like 135 per sqft.

    Pretty tempted to buy one by the end of the year and rent it out to some #millenials

    Shot in the dark but is anyone going to the Dylan LeBlanc show?
    It's at McGonigel's Mucky Duck on the 21st. I've just recently started listening to him and I've never been to that venue.

    I got married there last summer. It's one of the best places in the country. Check out the white tavern or something to that effect - very good burgers.

    Kirby Icehouse is the new cool spot. Axlerad, too. Lizzards in upper kirby/montrose is a smaller version of Kays. Local Pour if you want to grind on some cougars.

    I went to Kirby Icehouse for the first time the other weekend and I liked it a lot. Frattier version of Axelrad and more upscale version of lil woodrows midtown. Recently though I've been hitting up 13 celsius, Bovine and barley and prohibition for dates.

    I am your typical Houstonian Asian male: I sit in traffic for an hour, work from 7-3pm, and play video games naked until about 11-12am, leading to a habitual cycle of chaos. However, I do enjoy turning up on the weekend with my squadtourage and have amble experience with blacking out at multiple locations across Texas. Here is my play by play recap of my entire CC experience.

    - My squadtourage consists of two accountants and a financial adviser. We had already gotten into Kung Fu and were pounding shots inside until we got the call that our friends were inside of Concrete Cowboy. Standing in any line with our demographics is possibly the worse move you could make in the Houston nightlife and therefore should be frowned upon. Luckily, one of our friends was having a birthday party and had already bought four bottles, so there shouldn't be any issues to get in when there's a list. Oh wait, there is. "Friend has a party inside? You've got too many guys." Apparently, you need a 5:2 girl guy ratio to get inside, and I'm not the best person at math but that sounds like we'd need about twenty-three girls to get us inside, the equivalent to the U.S Women's Soccer Team.

    - After having friends trickle inside, we were the last ones waiting to get in. Three asian males standing at the front actively working as a wall bordering everyone in behind us. The bouncer would continually ask if there were more girls coming to match us and saw us with despair knowing that we were desolate of any form of the opposite sex coming to our rescue. I think I wore the wrong clothes because there were other dudes that were walking up shaking hands and getting into the club, even when he said there wasn't enough room and he had to wait for people to leave. There was even a twilight zone moment when we saw three guys who were our mirror opposites walk into the club right in front of us. Bizarre but we'd come and waited too long to leave.

    - Finally made it inside around 1:20 am. Goal was to get trashed and black out because any good indicator of a bar is how well the cohesion of alcohol, music and crowd can throttle your tolerance and explode your fun meter. Seeing as how we had spent a majority of our night in line, we made a beeline to the bar to order a ticket to trashedville and no one can take you there faster than the four horseman. I'm by no means a bartender but isn't a four horseman made of four liquors? She poured three bottles and I just stared at her as if I was waiting for her to finish her magic trick. But seeing as how we live in a consent culture, this only felt natural as we had already been screwed by the long wait in line.

    - Now that I had a mixture of inebriation agents infiltrating my system, we could finally move towards the celebration for obnoxious greetings with sloppy hugs and bottles. So as we slowly trudged our way to them, I noticed the inside is just a smaller form of Kung Fu, lacking in both space and broken arcade games. Even Red Door has some facet of decency when it comes to getting ratchet; there is zero of that at CC. There was only a small amount of us really getting down into the dirt with a larger group shouting and staring. This isn't really even a grievance, more so my pro for the night but I've written too much.

    - Near the end of the night, I had found myself dancing on top of a speaker and with my past experiences with dancing on speakers, this had possibly been the most dangerous. I mean I've danced on speakers at house parties, lock-ins and churches but wow, having a hanging speaker above a planted speaker? Are you asking for drunk negligence? Because that's how you get drunk negligence. My dancing motions were severely limited to half a quan and I had to be aware of my proximity of head to giant speaker. I don't know what civil engineer or twerk architect thought this was a good idea, maybe they had measured it to fit the standard 5'2 ratchet female addicted to retail but I'm 5'11 and had rightfully secured my spot on that speaker. I feel like this was just pure foolishness.

    The music is good though. But then again we walked to velvet taco afterwards so who knows how well my judgement that night was. Place gets 1 star for dank music, I think.

    Took me a google search to figure out what bar he was talking about. Its that hole in the wall across the parking lot from Kung Fu. That place has been about 5 different "bars" in the last 4 years, and I have no doubt the current rendition sucks just as bad as all the previous ones
