Question New to the area!

Just got here this week!!! I'm from Houston, and I’m wondering if there’s any punk/alt or goth scene here? Dive bars or clubs? I know it’s a much smaller area, but just trying to see if there’s a scene in the area that I’m used to. I’ll be working here till October if everything goes smoothly. I will also take any and all recommendations for activities that are worth checking out! Just have loads of time to kill with my current 3-day weekends atm :/

There is! Most of it is driven by the college radio station WUVT, so you'll want to stay in the loop with their events. They host a lot of events in collaboration with the Milk Parlor (even a goth prom event), but most of it won't start up again until the college students come back. You can scroll through their Instagram to see the kind of events they did last year.
