📝 About This Event
Donn's Depot is one of Austin's most unique venues — a converted 1940s train car that's been a neighborhood bar since 1972, with two dance floors. Thursday nights bring Murphy's Inlaws to the stage from 9pm. No cover — the venue's own FAQ says a cover is charged on Fridays, Saturdays and special shows only. Happy hour runs 2 to 8pm beforehand.

Other Depot nights retain older dates because calendar is unreadable and current grid does not reconfirm all schedules/prices. Re-read 2026-10-24 evening: donnsdepot.com/event-schedule structured event data, Oct 24-Nov 30: Mon Christine Albert Band 8:30pm, no cover; Tue Grouchy Like Riley 9pm; Wed Double or Nothing two-step lesson 7:30-8:30pm, then Frank Cavitt & The Honky-Tonk Doctors 8:30-11:30pm; Thu Murphy's Inlaws 9pm; Fri Donn & The Station Masters 9pm/$10; Sat rotating bands 9pm (Oct 31 Frank Cavitt $10, Nov 7 Nash Hernandez Orchestra, Nov 14 Grouchy Like Riley, Nov 21 Murphy's Inlaws & Outlaws, Nov 28 Frank Cavitt). Not every November card shows a cover, so Saturday's $10 stays tied to the published shows. The calendar also carries an explicit "CLOSED: HAPPY THANKSGIVING!" entry on 2026-11-26; a generated Murphy's repeat on that date does not override the closure notice, so Nov 26 is excluded.
