I've never checked the validity of this but I heard growing up that Dunkin Donuts were the first to go from doughnut to donut and their popularity was so big they changed the spelling of it in the dictionary. If that is true it's wild to me that years later they would throw the word that legit changed the spelling of it right into a bin and say to start calling them "dunkin"

What he doesn't say is that before the trip to Long John Silvers, it's a trip to his basement to play Squid Game.
So Anyway, not sure I could hang in his band, but I'd go see them live. I'll bet I wouldn't get bored.
SCOTS throws fried chicken at their gigs...they might do the same with crab cakes.

Sounds like good vibes.
I met up with the other folks from my current band at a local Denny's to chat before we jammed.

In Austin it's much preferred to choose Thundercloud Subs if for no other reason that it's the 'day job' for a lot of Austin's working poor musicians.
Thundercloud Subs - Austin's Neighborhood Sub Shop
Local sub shop with a rich tradition of good-natured people serving fresh, fast, and healthy food in a quirky and fun atmosphere, serving Austin since 1975.

I don't recall when last I visited Silvers but what I do recall why, it was terrible. Even Popeye's does a better sea food.

I don't know where all you could get seafood in Austin, but unless we're going to Pappadeaux's, DON'T call me. LJS crab cakes. Really ? ? ?

I usually just call it fried dough... MmM mm..
Cause I also like beaver tails, elephant ears, whatever fried dough options you got, I'm in!
Makes you wonder how many crab cakes he's bought over the years.
