The stories of many prominent performers are fairly common knowledge, including those of Norah Jones, Pat Boone, Roy Orbison, the One O&#8217;Clock Lab Band, and others, but the stories of the venues where they performed are generally much more obscure.\r\n\r\nGeographic Information Systems (GIS) provide an interactive platform to tell some of those stories, collecting venue names and locations which are bound together with so many vivid memories of the Denton music scene over the years, including Jim&#8217;s Diner, Captain Nemo&#8217;s, and\u00a0the Rock Bottom Lounge.\r\n\r\nClear centers of activity emerge &#8212; namely, the UNT campus, the Fry Street area, and historic Downtown Denton. The visual presentation of these venues provides tangible evidence of past and present creative activity in Denton, and shows continuity of the present scene with that of the storied past.\r\n\r\nThis project remains a work in progress\u00a0with the discovery of additional\u00a0former\u00a0venues and the development of new ones. The continuous growth and change in Denton provides the promise of new centers of creative activity, and new places to make memories that will define\u00a0the &#8220;good old days&#8221; of tomorrow.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.library.unt.edu\/people\/maristella-feustle\">Maristella Feustle\r\n<\/a>Music Special Collections Librarian","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"&nbsp; Denton, Texas has been home to a thriving music scene for decades, owing in large part to the consistent stream of talent and creativity which UNT&#8217;s music programs have attracted.
