Coming up this Friday the 27th, the music of Shane Wilson and Coldwater return to our upstairs stage!

That kicks off at 9pm–no cover charge…we’ll just see you here!

The Alabama States Art Council has handed out grants to multiple local arts programs in the area, including our friends Howard Bankhead and the Tennessee Valley Jazz Society!

The Tennessee Valley Jazz Society was introduced in 1998 as a supplemental program for students in area schools. The program added the value of the arts as well as incorporating the meaning and background behind jazz, including history and math concepts that go along with playing such music. So far, they have reached over 26,000 students and have hopes to reach many more.

For more information on the award, the background and mission of the Society, check out this article in the Madison Record.

Though we will officially begin serving our menu tomorrow night, for those coming to the French Wine Event Tonight, you can order some selections from our new bill of fare and enjoy the music of Amy McCarley. Join us for a grand evening! We’ll see you here!

Amendment XXI and Chalice Wines will be introducing new French wines for the first time in Huntsville and Alabama. Temperatures outside will be pretty chilly this week…So, come experience the warmth of these new wines with Franck Kakou, owner of European Wine Imports, and a Parisian by birth! Enjoy the coziness of France when Franck pours his luscious wines for you at our Wednesday, Jan. 25 Wine Tasting–that’s from 7:00 – 9:00pm. European Wine Imports, since 1999, has accumulated a portfolio of wines that are more about terroir (terrain) than they are about the latest wine flavor of the month. They believe that the earth–through the vine–makes the wine and not the chemists. “Only the best products from around the world” is the mission of European Wine Imports, Chalice Wines and Amendment XXI.

Please join us not only to taste these wonderful wines, and to hear about the terrain, growing regions and varieties of wines made before Rome conquered the area!

Wednesday the 25th, we have a special double header–fine wine and fine music.

First up, starting at 7pm, Margo Boyd from Chalice Imports will be on hand to take you through a selection of French, Italian and German wines. $10 gets you in for the tasting.

That’s scheduled to run through around 9pm. Once that’s done, though: don’t go anywhere. Singer-songwriter Amy McCarley (pictured on right) will be taking the upstairs stage with her blend of country and alternative folk music. For more info, check out her official site. No cover charge to turn out for the music!

We will see you here!

Come join us Friday the 20th starting at 9pm (until ?) as Charlie Howell, local singer-songwriter, takes our upstairs stage. He specializes in country, soul and folk music.

We’ll see you here!

Can’t make it to New Orleans for the Bama/LSU game next Monday night (1/9)? No worries.

Come out, enjoy free soft drinks and the snacks we’ll have on hand. You can also order in food from the eatery of your choice if you like.

Just remember: tailgating no longer requires the use of an actual tailgate! It’s 2012 now, after all. We’ll see you here!

Just a brief update: booths are sold out for upstairs! But that doesn’t mean there’s no room at the party–of course there is, both upstairs and down! $10 cover gets you in for the night–party kicks off officially at 9pm. Live music with Shane Wilson and Coldwater and the best drinks in this year or any other.

Looking forward to seeing you tonight!

We’re down to the last few seats available to be reserved for New Year’s Eve! We’re talking booth seats upstairs, of course. If you’ve been putting it off–do so no longer. Ping us at events at (this domain) dot com now and we’ll get you hooked up…if we haven’t run out!

Also, bear in mind this: bowl games. They’re happening. And we’ll be showing them each night. So if you want to hang out and watch in comfort, perhaps with a nice frosty beer or an excellent hand-crafted cocktail (not to mention the smoke-free environment, although I did sort of just mention it), then come on by!

Prepare for the music of Shane Wilson & Coldwater, giving you live entertainment at our New Year’s Eve shindig. The party kicks off at 9pm and it’s only $10 cover to get in for the evening.

Remember: booths are still available upstairs to be reserved but are disappearing from availability–so move quickly, friends! Also, you can also reserve a bottle of something special if the spirit(s) move you. But you’ve got to let us know in advance. Ping us at events at amendment xxi hsv dot com or call the bar at 256.715.0131. We will see you here!
