I'm not too familiar with Houston (I've only gone into the city once), but I'll add Warehouse Live to the list of places to check. And if any other readers have suggestions or tips, pass them along, too.

yeah warehouse is definitely the venut to check out in houston. the mink is more of a bar with a backroom for shows, and the proletariat is closing. several of the bands you've listed for austin are playing at warehouse!

Randall - you've awakened a beast in Texas
As for your bold choice, heh, Black Mtn left me totally underwhelmed when I saw them last. Though, for the record, I like them.

Yeah, that recommendation was based solely on the bands' most recent albums. And Dallas's excellent restaurant scene.
