There are some country songs, but a good mix of pop songs that also have line dances associated with it. This is the ONLY bar I've ever been to where they do a different version of Copperhead Road?? Wack. Not a lot of CWS so was disappointed. 95% line dancing. Drink prices are fair, and it is a big space and has a nice atmosphere with pool tables a mechanical bull, and an outdoor smoking area.

He's fast, kind gave me a lot of information about Newport Tennessee. GREAT service, great drinks & great music! Misty & Cassie are 2 other bartenders. Always smiling, never forget what I'm drinking. I feel special here. I love this restaurant/bar. Oh! Such comfort sitting on the bar stools. The chairs have a thick, padded seat and padded back. Those bar stools can put me to sleep if I sit back too long! The bar is shaped like a octagon so many can sit at the bar... They also have a lovely patio with a fire pit & a waterfall. It's very nice. Im staying in the area for an extended period of time. And I'm spending many of my meals and late night fun here at Michael's! Thank You all!

Drinks are pricy as expected at a dance bar. Have once been told $30 as cover to get in and then I declined and walked away and was tried to get haggled down to $20 - nah not a bar in Knoxville worth $20 to get in the door. Another time it was $10 to get in though? I just avoid going at this point. Better music than Hannah's next door though.

My friends that are in the medical field (21&25) were visiting from out of state (NY), and I had recommended we go to Southbound as I've always enjoyed my experience here. Unfortunately, the bouncer denied my friend (21) entry with no probable cause. She showed him her government issued ID, which he glimpsed at and he said he couldn't accept (he gave her absolutely no reason as to why), then asked if she had another way to prove her identity, like a credit card. When she offered to show her bank account, which is chime, he said that it doesn't count as a bank, answer was still no. She then offered to show her social security card and iPhone information, yet he still refused to even look at any of them, and became agitated when we asked what the issue was (leading to his ATTEMPT to call the police over, like he can't handle a cordial conversation with 3 girls that are half his size?) I found his behavior extremely appalling, and I really hope that management will find a better suited person for the position. This man was a complete AH, and took no steps to verify if my friend was indeed 21.
