Showtimes: 9:00 pm - Rob Baird, 10:15 pm - Roger Creager Roger Creager is an adventurist; he does not like to sit still while the world passes by - he tries to get the most out of what the world has to offer. All of this finds its way into Rogers music and live shows. His passion for life invigorates everyone around him including his fan base. Those who get hooked on his charisma and high energy come back show after show, year after year, and record after record. Creagers newest record may be his best work yet. Surrender, released Jan 2012, was produced by Lloyd Maines and marks a back-to-basics approach for Roger. As always, Roger creates an interesting collection with songs that are very different from each other and will keep the listeners attention start to finish. He co-wrote all songs except Redemption Song, a Bob Marley classic. Rob Baird says growing up in Memphis, a city suffused with music, it was impossible not to pick up the guitar as a kid. And later, pilfering through his sisters record collection, Tom Petty and bands dont bore us get to the chorus approach to song structure, melded with Bairds affinity for darker-themed lyrics of Texas writers like Chris Knight and other legends.

 Wall Photos Today in Texas History - On this date 166 years ago, December 29, 1845, Texas (comprised of the present state of Texas and parts of New Mexico, Colorado, and Wyoming) was admitted as the 28th state of the Union. A state constitution, drawn up by the convention, was ratified by popular vote in October 1845 and accepted by the United States Congress on December 29, 1845, the date of Texas’s legal entry into the Union. The formal transfer of authority from the republic to the state was not made until a ceremony held on February 19, 1846. President Anson Jones handed over the reins of state government to Governor James Pinckney Henderson having declared “The final act in this great drama is now performed. The Republic of Texas is no more.”

"Who needs Europe? The Texas Hill Country, west of Austin and north of San Antonio, might be the next best thing to crossing the Atlantic. The region is lush, colorful and, unlike much of the pancake-flat state, dotted with beautiful green hills that are evocative of Tuscany or the south of France. Moreover, the region is speckled with 22 wineries that buzz with food and music festivals year round. And towns like Fredericksburg offer a taste of the Old World, with German-style biergartens and schnitzelhauser. " #1 on Away.com's Top 10
