The Maverick opened in 1962 and has hosted some of the biggest names in country music, including Willie Nelson and Tanya Tucker. This establishment offers live country music Tuesday through Saturday, plus the occasional Sunday show. And if ever you need to take a break from dancing the two-step, you can head into the Maverick's Whiskey Lounge for a drink.

This nightclub is not strictly devoted to country music, but every Friday night, the River's Edge Lounge becomes a rowdy cowboy bar. Otto Ross, who wrote the River's Edge Lounge review for Metromix.com, says the key to this nightclub's success is cheap beer combined with attentive, attractive waitstaff.
