“The Zoo Bar in particular is an amazing place with so much history. Stop in, grab a cold beer and walk around the bar – Blues musicians from the past 40+ years have graced the stage and old yellowed posters adorn the walls. Catch a show and you can stand next to and behind the stage. You’re just a few feet from the drummer and you can fill your ears with the amps and snare hits and vocal monitors like you’ve never heard before.”  —  Stonebelly
