    Great music, great karaoke, great bartenders, cheap beer, wine, booze, and membership 21+…read more This is my favorite dive bar in years. So many great regulars and most everyone gets along with each other. Catch Karaoke with Shane on Tuesday nights!

    After a significantly long weekend... 1) two days spent in…read moreblisteringly hot weather manning a festival booth (while dealing with the occasional over-intoxicated you-know) 2) the first evening spent heaved over sick and sporting a massive headache -- likely from dehydration given #1 3) exchanging a would-be lazy Sunday to host an event that just didn't make the grade ... I was sharply reminded of home. And of good stiff drinks. Which brings me to Walker's. Metaphysically, that is. Because there's really never enough time in my crazy schedule to drive to Greensboro (incidentally, where my family lives and who I've only seen three times this year because of said schedule). My days at Walker's were many. And simpler. And boy, do I miss them. Had I known about life after grad school then, I would have appreciated the small-yet-reliable satisfaction that comes from being a regular at your neighborhood dive. The drinks are strong, and cheap. The jukebox has all the classics. The bar flies are a mix of funny, crazy, and kind -- but you know each of them by name. The bartender greets you like a friend. When the most of my troubles involved writing a paper on the use of viral marketing tactics employed by Snakes on a Plane, and nearly every other night meant a stop at Walker's with my roommate, it was almost an age of innocence in some ways. Here-here to the neighborhood watering hole!
