CHEYENNE

Don't miss Cheyenne's at Austin's New Old Dance Hall ~ Dessau!

Cheyenne is back by popular demand at Dessau Hall on Saturday, August 29th.

This large, now modern, Honky Tonk is built around 122 years of interesting musical history, and a fire that completely destroyed the original structure which had an oak tree growing out of the dance floor and up through the roof. Hell, now that’s Texas-a tree in the middle of the dance floor. It reminds us of another as famous a Hall in Freidresburg, Pat’s Hall with their huge Oak Tree band stand and its firery demise. Many famous artists have performed here such as Ernest Tubb, Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson, Hank Williams, Don Walser, Elvis (several times) and scores of others. This is an Austin tradition that has evolved from a famous 1050’s Honky Tonk, to the home of Elvis and Willie when passing through in the 1950’s and 1960’s to a Tejano Nightspot and Frat hangout more recently. This is a vital part of Texas music history. We’re happy to report is returned in summer of 2009!
