Permanent Records Roadhouse folds a live-music room, full bar, and working record shop into one Cypress Park stop. The front room’s wood paneling, checkerboard floor, and red booths frame a stage, so you can settle in with a drink and browse records before the set; shows share the space with comedy and DJ events. Behind the bar, a separate converted garage holds more vinyl, including bargain crates, while a patio offers room to step outside. Some show nights bring a taco stand, though food is not guaranteed. The former Cafe NELA building gives the place a link to a long-running local music room, now paired with Permanent Records’ crate-digging identity. It is at 1906 Cypress Avenue, and entry is 21 and over. Check DICE for tickets and show details.
