Carry at the Moody Theater in Austin,TX

Does anyone know if the Moody Theater (Austin City Limits) in Austin has a 30.06 sign. I am taking my wife to a concert and would like to know if carry is okay.

No entries match for "moody" in "austin". If you see one, please add it to the database.

BTW, welcome to the forum :tiphat:

Thanks for the info and quick reply. I'll be sure to update the list if I run across a sign at the event.

Yeah, I'm going to Wilco with my wife tonight as well.

I couldn't find anything online, but it's a new venue. I guess we'll see tonight, eh?

Not a sign in the place that I could find, 30.06 or 51% - and I went in and out twice. There *are* purse-searchers at the gate, but no checks aside from purses/bags (for cameras, they said). We had floor tickets, so I pocket-carried only (it gets crowded down there), but if you've got seats you should probably be good carrying whatever method is normal for you.

NcongruNt, thanks for the info. I'll slip a little .380 or .357 in my pocket when I go tonight.

Nope. The "no cameras" rule seems awful silly in this day and age. A good half of the crowd probably had their iPhones up in the air taking pictures or video at some point in the show.

Texas3006.com now has an entry for Austin City Limits, last updated July 2012. It says "Unable to verify validity of 30.06 sign" "In Lobby - West Wall" and that the address is listed as RED at TABC. I confirmed the listing as current, but just like the entry says, "Unknown whether this is limited to a bar area as opposed to the entire facility."

I'll be there tonight and will post what I find out, but has anyone been there recently who can provide more info today?

Mrs. Anygunanywhere and I saw Lyle Lovett there. I saw no 30.06 signs and I was looking.

I did not pack because I was consuming adult beverages.

Great venue.

I did have words with the threesome behind me (two women and one man) who would not shut up. I told them I paid to hear Lyle and not them. They left. I enjoyed the show.

Mrs Anygun told me she can't dress me up and take me anywhere.

Thank you, sir. I'll take your September 2012 report over the July listing and guess they took the 30.06 sign down. I'll be avoiding the bar area entirely.

BTW, I'm opening for Willie tonight at the DKR Alzheimer's benefit.

They asked the UT Longhorn Alumni Band to play at the start. But that's not as fun to say as "I'm opening for Willie."

The problem is the whole building may be 51%. There is no way to tell without seeing the diagram submitted to TABC or calling them to ask, but most times the license will be for the whole location, which throws the prohibition of carry on all of it, not just the bar area. :banghead:
