San Antonio's new honky tonk is Blayne's in St. Paul Square

• The soft opening is Friday, from 5pm-2am. It will feature music by The Babylonz and DJ Guero Vaquero.

Details: The new space has a dance floor, pool tables and a Tex-Mex menu.

• Blayne's will be open Wednesday through Saturday.

Of note: The bar's name pays homage to the late Blayne Tucker, who co-owned The Mix and was a beloved figure in San Antonio's music scene.

What they're saying: "We named Blayne's in honor of a dear friend whose impact in San Antonio is nothing short of extraordinary. We hope to continue his efforts and support live music in the city," Mahoney said in a statement.
