Comb some grease into your hair, slip on your creepers, cuff your jeans (the big cuffs), put the top down on your Coupe de Ville and head down South Congress to the Continental Club. You'll know you're there from the line of vintage cars parked out front. The Continental Club has long been ground zero for the rockabilly, surf and lounge scene in town. This place has style in spades. A red velvet curtain frames the bands that play in front of a black-and-red-checkered dance floor, while videos of '50s drag racing play above the bar. Through the years, the Continental Club has been host to such acts as Link Wray, Junior Brown and 8 1/2 Souvenirs. So come enjoy some of Austin's favorite music and do it in style.

The Continental has been around for many years and anyone lucky enough to squeeze into Toni Price's Hippy Hour on Tuesdays can find out what put Austin on the music map. With the loss of the Armadillo,Liberty Lunch and Steam Boat, the Continental is about all that is left of the heart of Austin.

The Continental is still the greatest. And talk about freindly. I have gone alone and was soon partying with the regulars. Tuesdays with Toni Price are special. I can't tell you why. Just go and see what I mean. Also try it on "First Thursday".
