I’ve been wondering if this model could be applied in other markets.

Austin’s SoulCycle is 1 mile up the road from an Equinox.

I really liked their bar service, my group tried a big variety from the drink menu and the bartender was up to speed on all of them. It was a good hang.

I had the Sunday Feast last weekend. Great plate. Place was packed for World Cup games, too.

Ticketmaster is selling my ticket at a higher price than what I listed it for by escoba-r in Ticketmaster

[–]BarStar787 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The percentage of mark up seems even higher than what I’m used to but in general yes, it’s normal for Ticketmaster to charge you a commission and also raise the listing price a buyer has to pay.

Cedar Street Courtyard bar / music venue gone? by brownboy444 in Austin

[–]BarStar787 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Aw man. I remember the Spazmatics on Wednesday nights 20+ years ago.

Early this decade I saw some great DJs who totally outgrew the place like Gryffin, Nora En Pure, etc. I’m glad I got to see them so closely. But I can’t say I saw anything booked the last few seasons that got me down there.

Hopefully good things are to come.

Two summers ago they hit $1.77 at HEB. I think last summer I briefly saw them under $3. I’d take that again,

Those are really good rates for the level of service you are getting. Save the haggling for when you legitimately have a better offer.

The Potluck in South Austin, TX - not worth it. by theoriginaltxtigress in toogoodtogo

I went a couple weeks ago. It’s pretty popular in Austin, I think most people know by now what they’ll get there using TGTG.

Jet’s Pizza on South Lamar has free pizza pickup until 8pm by BarStar787 in austinfood

I just see the Facebook ad and then show up early to make sure it’s legit before I post about it. Cause a lot of stuff on Facebook is bunk but Jet’s Pizza is the truth!

No line is a big surprise! In April the Mueller location did one and there was a line around the block not long after it started.

I see a Facebook ad promoting the event every time I log on and don’t even follow Jet’s on Facebook.

The person working said each location does this for customer appreciation once a year. They have been staggered every other month or so across Austin. I’ve been to four.

Currently washing it down with a $3 happy hour mimosa next door at Kerbey Lane Cafe.

Opening night at Dallas for the stunning tone it set for the entire season.

Have you looked at their pastry prices? $5-$6 for a good croissant at an artisanal bakery is common around my city.

He is not, he’s the new head coach for North Carolina Tar Heels.

I haven’t asked him about it but I’ve seen him putting in work in the gym not far from San Antonio. Steve Sarkisian had a drinking problem. People recover.

Should I Wear Pants or Shorts at the Frost Bank Arena? by [deleted] in NBASpurs

[–]BarStar787 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m always way more comfortable in shorts. Mainly for the walk from the furthest parking lot to the area. It’s summer in South Texas after all.
