Texas Ballet Theatre
With the change in temperature, we get a new season of football, several concerts, and the kickoff of the ever-beloved Oktoberfest. Yes, the kids are back in school, but we also get pumpkin flavored confections and drinks, along with a final round of concerts before the touring season winds down. So, grab your favorite snacks, some last-minute concert tickets, and set up your babysitter for several nights out. Just because Fall is creeping in doesn’t mean it’s time to hibernate. The temperature is actually going to be just right for several weeks.

Once simply called Sublime, this could seem like an odd pairing — the reggae-infused rock band from Long Beach headlining the World’s Largest Honky-Tonk — until you realize STYX, The Monkees, and The Temptations have all graced the stage at Billy Bob’s.
