Don’t Judge a Book

Reading the home page for Newnan’s Twilight Bar and Grill website, viewers will notice a very candid description regarding the establishment…
“Don’t let the funky exterior fool you. Inside is a first-class neighborhood bar full of nice people having a great time.”
Driving past the Twilight, some might lean towards being apprehensive about the establishment based on the aforementioned rugged exterior and although we’ve all been in situations where we’ve prejudged people or places only to find we were right on the mark, those that judge the Twilight before experiencing it are doing themselves a tremendous disservice. In this case, judging the book by its cover leaves you missing out on a great story.
The Twilight Bar and Grill may not be the newest or fanciest place in town, but it consistently draws a great crowd of incredibly nice people who know where to look for top notch entertainment and a friendly atmosphere. Owners and hosts Molly and Glenn are always talking with patrons and frequently sing along and dance with the music being played. They enjoy themselves so much, you get the distinct impression they built the bar not as an investment, but more as a wonderful opportunity to hang out and party with 300 of their closest friends.
The ‘friends’ that visit are knowledgeable about music, supportive of those who put in a solid effort on behalf of their enjoyment, and LOVE to have a great time. As a band, the energy and enthusiasm they exude is incredibly contagious and you routinely find yourself applauding them following a song because they add so much to your enjoyment while playing. During sets, (when neither dancing or clapping) they routinely hand you beverages and between sets, approach you to offer a kind word of thanks.
We had a fantastic time, greatly look forward to returning to the Twilight on May 1st, 2010 and hope those that caught the last show come back and join us again. We’ll be working extra hard to make sure we learn more new material and put on an even better show!
