Houston Recommendations

The Montrose Crawl is reportedly an annual Halloween party with no tickets, no covers, and nothing but fun. Find them on Facebook (FB.com/TheMontroseCrawl) and Instagram (instagram.com/montrosecrawlhtx).

Numbers Night Club is a legendary 80s club in Houston, known for playing 100% 80s music on Fridays, with a focus on underground/new wave and alternative genres. On Halloween night, they stick mostly to 80s music with some 90s underground, and play the iconic song Thriller. It's a packed and lively atmosphere, with a diverse crowd of all ages and backgrounds.

Allegedly Royalous Gaming in Katy Asia Town is showing the League of Legends Worlds event. Check them out if you're interested in watching the finals with your wife and friends.

Crowbar and Dying Fetus at House of Blues is my pick of the weekend. Sludge and death metal under one roof, that is my kind of trouble. For those interested in the event, it's happening at House of Blues, and tickets are likely available for purchase.

The Wildcatter Saloon is a bar and music venue that has some good shows. It's a staple in Katy for country music and dancing, making it a great spot to meet new people.

Check out Wave To Earth, a three-piece indie pop/soul/blues group from Seoul, South Korea, who records, mixes and masters their own work. They'll be performing at 713 Music Hall on Friday night for $95.20+.

West Alabama Ice House is a sports bar that offers a great setup for watching the Cowboys-Texans game, with big screens and plenty of drink options. It's also a good spot to meet people in the 30s-60s age range, as it has a mixture of ages and is an open venue, so you can enjoy the game while keeping cool on a hot day.

Stageworks is a small dedicated company focused on live theatre, currently performing the stage musical Jekyll & Hyde. The production is lavish in detail and dedication, with world class costume design, well coordinated lighting and stage production, and a cast with the pipes to carry the vocal demands of the score. One of the bonus features of the production is an actual museum built to describe the era and the technical features of the production, showing a lot of attention to detail.

The Box at the Secret Group Htx is a great spot for a single guy to have a good laugh on a Friday night. It hosts comedy shows, and you don't need a date to have a good laugh. Plus, it's located near 8th Wonder, where you can grab a beer or THC Seltzer before the show starts.

Bauhaus has Space 92, a spot for the DIY scene, and is located near downtown Houston. It's recommended to pre-game at Main Street bars, specifically Lil Dipper, Notsuoh, or One Amed Scissor, before heading to Bauhaus.

For those looking for a good selection of Japanese and Asian whiskeys, NASA Liquor is a reliable option. Located in the Katy area, it's worth a visit for its products, including some options for Shochu.
