Looking for all your ultra-hip friends? Check here first. The Hexagon is Minneapolis' first stop for all the local bands that are starting to create a buzz around town. It's split into two sections, "The bar side" and "The stage side" as most refer to them. Catch up on the latest gossip with your companions over a beer on the bar side before heading over to the stage side to see that band you've been hearing so much about lately.
With Leisure Birds, Erros Magicos, Beat Detectives, more.
It's been a turbulent ride for Pretty Boy Thorson and the Falling Angels. The band has more spin-offs than Happy Days, but the Falling Angels keep pulling back together. Thorson is likely to be belligerent and brash onstage as the band rips... More »
The inaugural event for the MN chapter of the Arm Wrestling League for Ladies will be part sporting tournament, part benefit party, part performance art (think of the spectacle of a pro-wrestling fight, and you're heading toward the right idea).... More »
On the first frighteningly festive weekend associated with Halloween, it doesn't get much better than the covers unfolding at the fourth-annual Hot Roxx Halloween Hextravaganza at the Hexagon Bar. Expect spirited sets by the Springsteen tribute... More »

It's a strange thing to think about, but there are places in Finland, France, and the U.K. where people know all the words to songs by Minneapolis rock 'n' roll and rockabilly band Reckless Ones. In Flagstaff, Arizona, too, and San Antonio,... More »
Cheap, Strong drinks, no trouble, Heggies pizza. AWESOME!
I love this place for a good local show. Fun people watching too.
Always no cover! Remember if you're there to see the bands to buy your drinks in the room with the stage! That's how the band's get their monies.
In a music community as close-knit as ours, there really is no such thing as a "secret show" or "unannounced special guests." Bloggers and Tweeters trample over one another to get the latest scoop, and every musician is friends with at least one or two people who have the ability to spread news like wildfire. So it was no surprise that the line to get into the show at the Hexagon last August with "unannounced" guests P.O.S. and Vampire Hands wrapped around the side of the building, with fans... More »
Long a hidden clubhouse for down-and-out boozehounds, Thin Lizzy cover bands, and country-western hobbyists, this little saloon ain't just for trucks anymore. We've got Chris Dorn, frontman for sporadically active popsters the Beatifics, to thank for the transmutation. Last September, Dorn took over booking duties for the Hex's modest stage, and he immediately opened the bar's rusty doors to the bright, sunshiny world of local music--indie rock and pop, to be more precise, with a smattering...

Sunday nights at the Hexagon are a throwback to the halcyon hours of country music in the Twin Cities. Back in the day, the Flame Bar and Café on Nicollet Avenue was a national destination for big-time country stars: Hank Snow and Roy Acuff were among the country luminaries who took the stage at the storied venue. But the Flame lost its liquor license and closed in 1978. By then it had become a destination for prostitutes and tramps, who may have represented the hard-luck spirit of... More »
