Often called the Music Capitol Of The World, the capitol city of Texas has a lot to offer. One great way to see why this is the case is to attend a show at concert hall Austin Texas. While there are a number of concert halls in the city, each have a unique personality. As such, each offers the opportunity to see different genres of live music and Broadway style shows.

Many historic venues have been lost to redevelopment in the last several decades. While this is the case, Bass Hall still provides Broadway style shows, commencement services, plays and dance. In fact, Bass is one venue that has it all and provides entertainment to residents, students and visitors.

Whether musician or poet, a number of venues have been torn down and replaced by million dollar condos in the inner city. As a result, venues which feature these individuals and bands have been pushed out to the suburbs. In some cases, clubs have moved to other areas of town while others have been moved outside the city limits.

Some of the most historic venues have tried to hang on only to go on and lose new spaces. One such venue is that of Ruta Maya Coffee House. Originally located at 4th and Lavaca, then having moved to South Austin, all venues have closed though the amazing coffee is still available at a number of grocers and big box stores. While this is the case, poets and musicians whom played the venue on a weekly basis all miss the community which customers, employees and artists had built up over the course of time.

Whether due to the new high dollar landscape in many areas, or scalpers working to profit off desperate fans, ticket prices are sky high. As such, only those whom have a great deal of money or whom can win tickets are those seen at shows. Whereas, most of the bands playing have had a following of Austin residents and tourists for year. One way to check out new and old music is to attend one a cancer benefit which radio station KGSR 93.7 puts on early mornings during the first week of South By Southwest in downtown each year.

In some cases, fans have been able to find ways to afford these higher priced tickets. Although, as prices rise each year when it comes to concerts, festivals and shows, it gets harder to afford various events with each passing year. While there has been some effort to head off scalpers, it can often be a difficult task.

While Austin City Limits Live, the Continental and the Saxon are popular clubs in the city, most of the large concert halls reside either North, South, East or West of the city along main thoroughfares. As such, while many have sound acoustics, many outdoor venues have to work around noise from airplanes, traffic and other sources.

Exploring different live music venues can still be a fun experience in Austin. Although, the once famed 6th Street on which a number of live music venues were located has become riddled with criminal activity. As a result, a number of the live music venues have now moved outside the downtown area. While individuals use to be able to club hop up and down 6th and other streets which were once lined with entertainers and vendors, most now prefer to drive between venues.
