The House of Blues opened in Dallas just last week on the 8th of May.  Dan Aykroyd, aka Elwood Blues of The Blues Brothers, kicked off the debut party.  That’s life in the fast lane.  The Hard Rock Cafe closed it’s doors not too long ago, and then the House of Blues opened right up. I’ve always said that when one door closes, another door opens. It’s just good karma, man.
