Feel the cannon thunder. Witness the moment Texas stood its ground.\nThe annual Battle of Gonzales Reenactment brings to life the historic clash that marked the official beginning of the Texas Revolution. In October 1835\, settlers in Gonzales refused to return a cannon loaned to them by the Mexican government — instead raising a handmade flag with a black star\, a sketch of the cannon\, and four legendary words: “Come and Take It.” \nWhat followed was a standoff between approximately 140 Texian militia and Mexican dragoons\, culminating in a pre-dawn skirmish that lasted mere hours but changed the course of history. Though the battle resulted in few casualties\, its impact was immeasurable. The resolve of the Texians to resist disarmament ignited a wider rebellion\, and Gonzales became known as the “Lexington of Texas” — the symbolic birthplace of Texas independence. \nThrough this dynamic reenactment\, costumed interpreters and historical combat demonstrations recreate the drama and courage of that pivotal moment\, complete with musket fire\, cannon blasts\, and immersive storytelling. \n🏛️ Explore Pioneer Village \nWhile you’re here\, take time to explore Pioneer Village\, a living history museum dedicated to preserving the daily life of early Texas settlers. Nestled on wooded acreage just north of downtown Gonzales\, the village features original 19th-century buildings—including a blacksmith shop\, homes\, barns\, a church\, and more—each furnished with authentic artifacts and period tools. \nDocents and volunteers offer hands-on demonstrations and guided tours throughout the weekend. From washboard laundry to butter churning and frontier cooking\, every corner of the village invites you to step back in time and experience Texas as it was. It’s the perfect pairing to the reenactment and a must-visit destination for history lovers of all ages. \n📅 Plan Your Visit \nLocation: Pioneer Village • 2122 N St. Joseph St\, Gonzales TX\nTime: Saturday\, October 4 • 2:00 PM – 2:30 PM\nAdmission: $6/adults\, $3/children (ages 5–12)\nTip: Arrive early to explore the village\, shop local vendors\, and get a front-row spot \n🎖️ This reenactment is more than a performance — it’s a chance to stand on the soil where Texas history began.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space alter_height=”none” hide_on_desktop=”” hide_on_notebook=”” hide_on_tablet=”” hide_on_mobile=””][vc_raw_html css=””]JTVCbW9kdWxhJTIwaWQlM0QlMjI2MDM0JTIyJTVEJTBB[/vc_raw_html][vc_empty_space alter_height=”none” hide_on_desktop=”” hide_on_notebook=”” hide_on_tablet=”” hide_on_mobile=””][vc_raw_html css=””]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[/vc_raw_html][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column icons_position=”left”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column icons_position=”left”][/vc_column][/vc_row]

What followed was a decade of genre-defining success: ten studio albums\, three Gold records\, and the double-Platinum No Ordinary Man featuring iconic hits like “Watermelon Crawl\,” “Lifestyles of the Not So Rich and Famous\,” and “The Keeper of the Stars.” \nAfter parting ways with major radio rotations in the mid-2000s\, Byrd doubled down on live touring. He built a loyal Texas fan base\, launched his own line of BBQ sauces\, and stayed true to his roots—performing 100+ shows a year with the same five-piece band that’s backed him for over two decades. Now celebrating 30+ years in country music\, Tracy Byrd remains one of the most respected traditionalists of his era. \n🎶 Music & Live Show Style \nByrd’s concerts are a high-energy blend of honky-tonk throwdowns and heartfelt ballads. From the Cajun swing of “Watermelon Crawl” to the slow\, starry-eyed pull of “Keeper of the Stars\,” each set flows with dance-hall-ready hits and singalong choruses. Live shows feature twin Telecasters\, pedal steel\, fiddle\, and Byrd’s baritone pitch—always 100% live with no tracks or Auto-Tune. \n\n🎻 Two-step-ready arrangements with extended instrumental solos\n🎶 Crowd participation during “Ten Rounds with José Cuervo”\n🎸 Down-home jokes and stories from the road\n\nExpect a family-friendly\, boot-stomping show that honors the legacy of 90s country—and still delivers with timeless charm. \n🧭 Plan Your Visit \n\nArrive early: Tracy Byrd kicks off the Saturday night headliners at 9:00 PM. The square will be filling quickly before Los Grandes Del Norte takes the stage at 11:00 PM.\nMain Stage Location: Northeast corner of Independence Square\, in the parking lot at St. George and St. Joseph Streets.\nSeating: Bring lawn chairs or picnic blankets. Limited room\, especially close to the stage.\nFood & Beverage: Vendors will be open throughout the evening along St. Paul and around the square.\nBeer Tent: Located near the stage for 21+ guests. Tokens available at the ticket booth.\nParking: Downtown streets are closed during the festival. Park in designated lots or surrounding neighborhood streets.\nCooling Stations: Port o Cool fans are located near the Beer Tent and Food Court areas.\n\n[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space alter_height=”none” hide_on_desktop=”” hide_on_notebook=”” hide_on_tablet=”” hide_on_mobile=””][vc_raw_html css=””]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[/vc_raw_html][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column icons_position=”left”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column icons_position=”left”][/vc_column][/vc_row]

With founding members Porter Howell (lead guitar\, vocals)\, Del Gray (drums)\, Dwayne O’Brien (rhythm guitar\, vocals)\, and Duane Propes (bass guitar\, vocals)\, they stormed the charts with thirteen Top 40 singles between 1991 and 1995. Their debut single “Some Guys Have All the Love” cracked the Top 10\, while later tracks like “God Blessed Texas” and the Billboard #1 “My Love” became anthems across country radio and Texas dancehalls alike. \nTheir second album\, Big Time (1993)\, went double platinum and solidified their crossover appeal—balancing southern rock swagger with rich vocal harmonies and heartland balladry. Even as lineup changes followed in the late ’90s\, Little Texas remained active on the road and on the air. Today\, the re-formed four-piece lineup—still led by Howell\, Gray\, O’Brien\, and Propes—tours constantly and continues to record new music\, including Missing Years (2007) and Young for a Long Time (2015). In 2022\, they celebrated the 30th anniversary of their debut album\, and their fan base only continues to grow. \nMusic & Live Show Style \nExpect an all-killer-no-filler showcase of 90s country gold\, performed by the guys who wrote the blueprint. Their live shows center on tight four-part harmonies\, arena-worthy guitar work\, and storytelling lyrics delivered with conviction. Signature songs like “Kick a Little\,” “What Might Have Been\,” and “Amy’s Back in Austin” tap into themes of love\, heartache\, and small-town pride—all wrapped in stadium-sized arrangements that energize crowds of all ages. \nWith Porter Howell now fronting the band\, vocals remain pitch-perfect while the musicianship has only deepened after decades on tour.

I want you to feel the moment that made me write it.”  – Devin Michaels \n🎶 About the Artist\nRaised in the small town of Refugio\, Texas\, Devin Michaels didn’t start out chasing the spotlight — but once he picked up his first guitar in 2017\, something clicked. What began as a private outlet for his quiet\, inward nature turned into a powerful songwriting force. Now\, with a five-piece band backing him\, Devin’s music has moved from his fingertips to center stage — and into the hearts of fans across the region. \nDevin is rooted in the country greats — George Strait\, Merle Haggard\, and the soulful Tejano sounds of his grandmother’s kitchen. But he’s not stuck in the past. He blends classic Texas country with gritty Americana\, alt-rock edge\, and emotional storytelling that punches way above its weight. \n🎸 What to Expect from the Show \nRaw emotion\, tight musicianship\, and a voice that doesn’t ask permission. Devin doesn’t just perform; he confesses\, unleashes\, and lays it bare. Every track in his setlist — from the aching loneliness of Whiskey to the wounded rage of Wasted Time — tells a story that feels like it’s partly yours. \nThis is music for people who’ve stayed up too late missing someone\, loved too hard\, and lost too much — but still come back swinging. \nBacked by a full band with lead guitar\, bass\, keys\, and drums\, Devin’s live show combines: \n\nEmotional depth and rock-n-roll grit\nCrowd-pleasing solos and anthemic builds\nPersonal storytelling that holds the room\n\nYou’ll laugh\, cry\, and nod along like he’s been reading your diary — and by the final song\, you’ll be a fan. \n📍 Plan Your Evening \n\nLocation: Main Stage at Independent Square\, downtown Gonzales\nWhen: Thursday\, October 3 — performance begins at 8:00 p.m.\nCost: FREE — no ticket needed\nTips: Bring a lawn chair\, a drink from a local vendor\, and someone who understands the lyrics before they even start\n\n[/vc_column_text][vc_raw_html css=””]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[/vc_raw_html][/vc_column][/vc_row]
