If you are a Houston-area band or musician with an otherwise unclassifiable sound, then Super Happy Fun Land is your paradise. Located off a shadowy side of Polk next to a haunted-looking train crossing, SHFL is one of the last bastions of weird in Houston (aside from spirit brother Notsuoh). You can find bands playing at this art-space/venue almost every single night of the week. A few months back, Monotonix played part of their show inside the men's bathroom. The inner d�cor is curated by a hella arty husband-and-wife team who also run the proceedings with an extremely understanding hand. Make sure to buy a sock monkey on the way out.
