The First FMX Birthday Bashes Were Very Different As we sit here wading through this pandemic and waiting for the return of shows, let's look back at some of the original FMX Birthday Bashes. Yes, we can't wait to get back to some live music. With the new Buddy Holly Hall, improvements at the Lonestar Amphitheater and Jake's Backroom and a few other new available locations, we're pumped to have anything that rocks back in town. Let me be clear: even though it's FMX's 40th anniversary, no matter who we book, big or small, they will be loved. Anyone that complains is getting a kick in the sack.
