It is a rather smokey joint with a decent sound set-up. It's one of those places that make you feel involved with the musicians. Another bonus is that I'd say about 80% of the time, you get the opportunity to meet the bands after the show. Just wait out around their bus until the crowd disperses and they'll usually come out and hobnob, chat, take photos, sign autographs, etc.
A few of the bands I've seen and met in Deep Ellum include:
Powderfinger (from Australia)
David Gray (From Wales)
Sister Hazel (US)
Kasey Chambers (from Australia)
30 Seconds to Mars (US)

 Deep Ellum by geanster
Keep in mind, this hasn't kept me from eating or seeing shows in the area. There is usually a large police presence during the busy hours there and the only situation I might feel uneasy in is if I parked down a dark secluded alley-way somewhere and had to hike to the clubs.
Deep Ellum boasts not only some of the greatest small music venue's such as Gypsy Tea Room, but also events such as The Deep Ellum Art's Festival and The Deep Ellum Film Festival which draws a hip crowd each year. Also, some of the coolest lofts and apartment's in Dallas can be found in this area.
Interesting historical information:
Deep Ellum is an entertainment and arts district on Elm Street east of downtown Dallas in Dallas County. The area was settled as a "freedmens' town" by former slaves after the Civil War; its location on Elm Street, just east of the Houston and Texas Central tracks near the depot, was too far from downtown Dallas to be desirable. The area was called Deep Elm or, as early residents pronounced it, "Deep Ellum."

Many famous jazz and blues musicians have played in this neighbourhood since the 1920's which music was introduced here. It was also at one time a red light district and many murders took place around the nightclubs. It is a lot safer of course these days but like anywhere, precautions should always be taken.

Hear some live music, do a couple shots, and dance the night away... then eat breakfast at a 24 hour diner.
Dress however you like. Deep Ellum is a little on the alternative side with more leather, tattoos and piercings per acre than elsewhere in the generally conservative 'big D' but, with very few exceptions, most places accept you however you are.

Deep Ellum is a pretty cool place to go to... The people you will see here represent all of Dallas, so to speak, not just your typical Northern Dallas Socialite.... People definitely let loose here... I've been to a few places here... I would try to avoid a bar called the Bone though when you come here.. It's pretty much just a pick-up meat market and the bartenders are really rude... I usually leave very generous tips for the bartender, but not here...There are lots of tattoo shops, piercing shops and a really great restaurant called Cafe Brazil...
Some other spots for nightlife are Lower Greenville, the West End, and I highly recommend a place I went just recently in the Arts District called Ad Libs... It's a comedy club (improv) very similar to the show 'Whose Line Is This Anyways?' I hadn't laughed so hard in a long time... Leave a Comment Theme: Other
