This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Oh the original Continental Club is in Austin, been there since the 50s. The 2nd location in Houston location opened more recently. There's a SXSW poster on the right, so I'm going to assume this was taken in Austin
