October 26th! Our final show at Threadgill’s World HQ on Riverside before it closes permanently in November. Badass opener just announced: Torino Black!! Tix on sale now in bio and they’re moving! 📸 @jodydominguestudios #erictessmer #2018onfire #threadgills
Dig in! Tickets for our final Threadgill’s World Headquarters show on October 26th are now on sale! Link in bio!! Both Threadgill’s locations are two of Austin’s most important historical venues and the south location is about to be gone... it started as an armory building, but between 1970 and 1980 it was the mighty Armadillo World Headquarters. Everyone from Freddie King and SRV to Lynyrd Skynyrd and Van Halen to Captain Beefheart and Frank Zappa. The Armadillo closed on Dec. 31st, 1980. Threadgill’s South was opened, as an extension to Austin legend Ken Threadgill’s legacy, in 1996 right next door to where the Armadillo stood by original Armadillo owner Eddie Wilson and the live music tradition continued. Now, as with so many of our beloved Austin landmarks, skyrocketing rents and urban crowding are forcing Threadgill’s South to close the week of Thanksgiving. I’ve played some of my favorite Austin shows here and I’m heartbroken that it’s disappearing, but we’re going to go out on a high note (and a loud one!) Join us on October 26th to bid farewell to this Austin landmark venue! All ages show! #erictessmer #2018onfire #threadgills 📸 @jodydominguestudios
