The Door
For music lovers going Dallas travelling, the Door in Deep Ellum is a place to remember. Deep Ellum is the hub for all band performances - whether local bands or international, all bands of all genres find stage space in this whirlpool of different musical styles and cultures.
The Door is a cult within the cult of Deep Ellum, giving Dallas folks the opportunity to hear their favorite rockstars without burning a hole through their pockets. Alcohol is forbidden on the premises, but the adjacent Prophet Bar allows you to tank up before a show, in between or after.
The no-alcohol environment also makes The Door teenager-friendly, in a way very few other clubs can be. The ban on smoking has been a killjoy for some chain-smokers, but will be tremendously welcomed by non-smokers, young teenagers and the guardians of the latter.

The Door primarily patronizes Indie rock bands, which is thoroughly in keeping with Deep Ellum's reputation for being a home to the talents that no one will recognize in the mainstream. Consequently, this gives music lovers a taste of some music they may never get to hear otherwise. Occasionally, the Door, Dallas has also been graced by bands who later made it big internationally, and who fondly remember the place and its attached memories. The black building, with its unassuming "The Door" sign, has acquired a definite niche for itself in Dallas' urban folklore.
If you plan to travel in Dallas Texas, The Doors is one of those places you should visit - whether for a culture shock, a feeling of "home away from home", or a taste of something you'll never find anywhere else in the world, it completely depends upon you.
