Former location –
Liberty Hall was a venue located in downtown Houston, Texas from 1971 to 1978. It was located where a parking lot two blocks away from the Toyota Center is currently. The venue was relatively small, holding about 450 people. The stage and floors were wooden. The intimate setting allowed for good acoustics, different from popular arena-style venues at the time.

I guess that there were many bands that played shows on weekends that were not concerts. I remember seeing Nitzenger playing Delta Dawn. It was a cool time. My brother’s band opened for them. A very temporary member of that band later made a name for himself . Nick Faing nephew, Steven E..
