The last concert I saw was well over a year ago, Raul Malo at the Tower Theatre. Just as it has been for many of us, this past year has been tough on the venue, as well as their sister spot, Ponyboy. But, when I heard they were back—not to mention with a new menu—I had to get down to Ponyboy, 423 NW 23rd St., if only to be closer to the Tower.
My ex-girlfriend and I went there last week, happy to see that social distancing was still in full glory. It felt good to once again be inside of the place and, even though I wasn’t seeing a show, at least I could finally try these tasty wares, something in the future I could order before or, more accurately, after a rather electrifying concert.
