As much as I also love the Old 97's, Mike, I'm pretty sure the Smithereens played "House We Used to Live In" (not "House That Used to Be"). And, by the way, it was a great extended jam, no matter the title. Pretty impressive show, and I agree that the band was awfully engaged with the audience... not to mention pretty tight in their sound.

Thanks, TG. By the way, for anyone who goes, the ice cream I had (with the chocolate-covered pecans and caramel chunks), was called Sunken Treasure. I highly recommend it. I was thinking my wife had the Elephant Ears, but hers might have actually been the Moose Tracks. Either way, it was very good.

Very impressive ice cream shop in the western part of Southlake. I tried an ice cream with a vanilla base, plus chocolate covered pecans and caramel laced throughout. Delicious! My wife enjoyed the Elephant Ears ice cream, made from a vanilla base packed with chocolate-covered peanut butter cups. Not crowded if you hit it at dinnertime. Wait, this is supposed to be dessert, not dinner?!

Picnics require sharing, and this stuff is too good to share. My doctor and the makers of Vytorin thank Brothers for creating this divine stuff.

I won't speculate on what led to 62 Main's closing, but I have no doubts that the citizens of Colleyville have sophisticated palates and the ability to support well-executed concepts. Colleyville_Customer, do you have other local favorites in Grapevine, C'ville or Southlake to recommend?

Dallas can keep its Cheesecake Factory, thanks. Please send Lola out to Colleyville. And a Gingerman would be nice, too.

Well, shoot. The wife and I just bought a house in Colleyville, and we were looking forward to trying 62 Main as well as the Wednesday night wine events in their bar. Anyone have other dining recs in the nearby vicinity?
