I get it. We played Fitzgerald's a lot for the last few years before it closed. My buddy was sitting in the lighting booth watching the last show.
I don't think there's anything that's going to capture that vibe anymore. BFE is cool. Numbers, for whatever reason, was never really my scene. I've played there but I don't go out of my way to do it. Even The Farm isn't really what it used to be. I wish I could remember what the name of it was before because we played there a lot too. Wildcatters out in Katy is pretty cool on the right night. Brash has the arcade. Karbach usually has something cool going on (I've got a friend over there right now). But none of that is like what Fitzgerald's was back in the 00s (I was too young and hours away in the 90s, then I left for the military).
But you know what they say. You can never go home.
Yeah, it's so true! I've gotten close on bourbon street watching an amazing mostly cover band, but I never expect to find fitz again. But there's gotta be bands like that... Right? Or has it all been that fucked by the industry?
It's not like the old days, but you can still find high energy local acts out at places like BFE. Just keep an eye on their roster. I'll likely see you there someday!
Cool. Will do. Thanks, and have a great weekend!
