But the age of the patrons isnt the only standout feature.The bar also sports an old-school saloon vibe thats decidedly different from the rest of the nightlife district. After a year in operation, its now regularly hosting performers from well outside of the country and Americana scene it opened to serve. For example, avant-metal act The Grasshopper Lies Heavy recently took the stage there, as did queer Southern rock outfit Thelma and the Sleaze.So, what gives? Is the spot that once billed itself as a classic C&W hotspot forsaking its original mission? And that dancing music need not be limited to the boot-scootin variety.I personally go out of my way to book punk shows and metal shows, Capps said.

On Saturday, classical music performance comes to an unlikely venue: Hi-Tones, a popular bar on the St. Marys Strip known more for DJ nights and live rock or rap music. The idea for the uncommon pairing of music with venue came to show organizer lvaro Del Norte several months ago. He said he was inspired by his own love of classical music and his desire to see it outside of its typical contexts. Ramirez said that the musicians he reached out to were surprised, intrigued, and ultimately excited at the prospect of performing classical music in an unconventional setting. At some point you have to add something to make it relevant.Like Ramirez, Jabbar expressed a slightly playful ambivalence about the audiences potential response to the show.
