Distribution Bar is a live-performance stop in Fort Worth, Texas, while final capacity and age rules remain show-specific. The bar occupies the former S&R Bar location in the city’s Near Southside development. Distribution Bar can hold shows any night of the week, and its calendar is open to All Genres. Booking inquiries go through the venue’s online form. The production package is not confirmed, so PA, monitoring, backline, and staffing need direct agreement. Final timing and event-specific arrangements also need agreement before the show is announced. Artists should build proposals around musical fit, available dates, and the practical setup required for the room.

Venue review
The musician's read
Second Rodeo Brewing is a Stockyards brewery and honky-tonk with live music every day. The venue combines beer, food, outdoor and indoor social areas, and regular performers rather than treating bands as occasional entertainment. Country, Americana, Western swing, acoustic rock, blues, singer-songwriters, and compact full bands are natural fits. For musicians, the daily schedule creates unusually frequent opportunities, while the Stockyards crowd rewards strong vocals and a Texas-friendly repertoire. Full bands can work, but smaller configurations fit many daytime and early-evening slots. Second Rodeo is a strong Fort Worth target for working roots and country musicians seeking recurring dates and a built-in tourist and local audience.
