FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — According to Hometowns of Consequence, a competition based on fan-led nominations of venues across the country that have become a "home-away-from-home" for music fans, George's Majestic Lounge in Fayetteville is a regional finalist.
Fans were asked to nominate their favorite 2,000-capacity or less local venues, and finalists were narrowed down to five U.S. regions: Northeast, Southeast, Midwest, Southwest, and West.
In the regional finalists announcement, Consequence stated that while some venues in the mix are newer, some "have extensive histories, like the 96-year-old Fayetteville, Arkansas venue George's Majestic Lounge," while also mentioning Cain's Ballroom in Tulsa, which is almost 100 years old.
