Live Oak Music Hall & Lounge SITE VISIT


We  had the chance to visit  the Live Oak Music Hall and Lounge  located at 1311 Lipscomb St. in the Near Southside neighborhood.   This old building that once was the Southside Lions Club has been renovated into a Music Hall.  







We got a personal tour from Bill Smith the developer.  Bill Smith explained how he used his years of construction experience and through a labor of love rebuilt this  old warped building into the beautiful Music House and lounge it is today.



His hand carved woodwork can be seen throughout the Music hall and it is testimony to all the care he put into this place.  



Today the Live Oak is a major part of the community and hosts a variety  of concerts from live bands to symphonies. It is a frequent spot for local fundraising concerts  or just a great place to hang out an I am sure we will be hearing about events at this place for years to come.
