The Best Karaoke Bars In Austin
Give humans some alcohol and a bit of music, and you’re bound to hear some singing. Trips to a karaoke bar usually happen for one of two reasons—you’re at a birthday party, or it’s after midnight, you’ve had one too many shots of tequila, and you can’t rest until someone hears your off-key rendition of “Dancing Queen.” Whether you’re a seasoned veteran looking to get up on stage and share your talents with the world, or you just think you are after a few drinks, these are our favorite bars where you can sing (almost) any night of the week.

These markets keep cool clothes, art, and more in rotation every weekend in Austin. I’ll say it: Buying new stuff is lame. When you buy brand-new clothes or housewares from your average department store – a term that dates me instantly – you’re allowing the corpo-freaks in the executive suite decide your style. After all, who do you think chose that forest-green henley hanging in a rack of 50 other forest-green henleys? Some person on a runway, who caused some other person watching the runway to go back to their boss, who went back to their boss, and so on and so forth until it trickled down into your hands because you had 20 dollars and didn’t know where else to shop. Sorry for the Miranda Priestly riff, but don’t you want to be face-to-face with the person selling you an item you’ll be wearing all the time?
