There is no conductor. There has never really been a setlist\, not in over a hundred years of existence. And somehow\, that absence of structure is exactly what has kept the Shiner Hobo Band alive for a century\, longer than most professional acts with actual management behind them. \nThe story starts after World War I\, when veterans came home to find the family bands and dance hall groups that once soundtracked their small towns had scattered during the war years. Rather than mourn what was lost\, a group of returning soldiers stitched something new together out of patched clothes\, borrowed instruments\, and the simple determination to make people laugh and dance again. That combination of chaos and charm became the blueprint. Mismatched overalls\, rowdy energy\, and a standing arrangement with the Spoetzl Brewery to supply a keg per show turned the Hobos into something closer to a traveling party than a traditional band. \nBy 1936\, under the direction of Emmett Busch\, who led the group while waving a toilet plunger in place of a baton\, the Hobos had become a genuine regional sensation. Crowds across Shiner\, Gonzales\, and the surrounding towns turned out for the brass and button accordion sound\, a combination that felt both foreign and completely at home in Central Texas. The band kept showing up through the 1950s for parades\, church picnics\, and civic events\, a fixture of small town life until longtime leader Curt Messer’s declining health slowly pulled the group out of the spotlight. \nThe silence did not last. In 1986\, the Hobos returned for the Texas Sesquicentennial\, rallying local musicians under Joe Panus\, who inherited both the leadership role and the plunger baton tradition along with it. A speaker rigged school bus and a fresh coat of paint gave the revival its own identity\, but the spirit underneath was unchanged\, humor first\, heritage always\, rules optional. \nToday the band carries up to thirty active members pulled from towns across Central and South Texas\, still operating as a nonprofit\, still sponsored by the brewery that backed them from the start. Every performance is played from memory\, no sheet music in sight\, which means no two Hobo sets ever sound quite the same. That unpredictability is the whole appeal. Somewhere between a polka breaking into a joke and a surprise solo nobody saw coming\, the band proves its own philosophy correct: the best music happens when you throw out the rules and play from the heart. \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:Saturday Night: La Fiebre

You’re getting the same production values that made the band famous in the first place: full horn section\, smoke\, lighting\, and a stage presence built for arenas even when they’re playing a local ballroom. La Fiebre earned the nickname “The Pride of Pasadena” by treating every performance\, from backyard quinceañeras in the 1980s to sold-out anniversary tours\, with the same high-wattage energy\, and that hasn’t changed in forty years. \nWhat audiences hear is a sound built on brass and momentum. Founded in 1985 by Rudy Rocha and Joe Angel Reynosa\, La Fiebre helped define a harder-edged\, horn-forward strain of Tejano that turned “Borracho de Besos” into a platinum-selling anthem and kept the band on Billboard charts for years after. That same rhythm section and horn line still anchors the show\, so longtime fans get the songs they grew up on\, played with the punch that made them hits in the first place. \nWhat’s new is the voice out front. Latin Grammy winner Abel Talamantez\, with a résumé that includes Menudo\, Kumbia Kings\, and Los Super Reyes\, stepped in as lead singer in 2026\, giving four decades of catalog a fresh set of pipes and a modern stage presence. Pair that with a new recording deal with Freddie Records and the band’s 40th anniversary momentum\, and concertgoers are catching La Fiebre at a genuine inflection point: a band with the deepest possible roots\, playing like it has something to prove all over again. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

As the longtime lead voice of San Antonio’s Grupo Vida and its country counterpart The Electric Cowboys\, Martinez helped rack up three Grammy nominations\, shared stages with Toby Keith\, Clay Walker\, and Jo Dee Messina\, and toured alongside the Dixie Chicks on their “Fly” Tour. That’s the resume of someone who could have coasted on one sound for the rest of his career. Instead\, when he stepped away from both bands in 2022 after a quarter century\, he built something built to switch gears on command. \nThat’s exactly what a Jase Martin show delivers. Billed as “The Greatest Show in Texas\,” the set moves fluidly between country\, Tejano\, and whatever era the crowd is calling for\, backed by the band’s own sound and state-of-the-art LED lighting so no venue needs to hire a separate production crew. And if a room wants to go full nostalgia\, that’s where the “Standing Peppers” alter ego comes in: a dedicated 70s\, 80s\, and 90s throwback set that turns the same stage into a full-blown decades party. \nMartinez calls the group “always imitated\, never duplicated\,” and after 25 years building a following one Grammy-nominated hit at a time\, it’s less a slogan than a track record. With a new single\, “Because I Love You\,” out now and a live show still built to read the room and adapt in real time\, Jase Martin and The Standing Peppers bring the kind of veteran musicianship and range that comes from decades on the road\, and none of the complacency. \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

Reagan Hicks is built for a Saturday night on the square\, and that is precisely the point. Hailing from Flatonia and raised in nearby Hallettsville\, now calling San Marcos home\, Hicks belongs to a specific strain of Texas songwriting\, the kind that gets passed down through small towns rather than manufactured in Nashville boardrooms. This is a rising voice out of the South Texas circuit\, and the sound reflects exactly where it came from. \nThe music itself refuses easy categorization. Guitar\, drums\, and bass shift shape depending on the room\, some nights a stripped down solo set\, other nights a full band pushing the energy toward something rowdier. What stays constant is the songwriting\, original material steeped in south central Texas storytelling\, filled out with covers that draw equally from mainstream country radio and the deeper\, dustier tradition of Texas country that radio never quite touched. \nDo not mistake any of this for polished and safe. Hicks trades in real grit\, the kind that comes from actually living in the towns being sung about rather than visiting them for a music video shoot. It shows in the stage presence too\, less stadium gloss\, more genuine hometown connection\, the sense of an artist who could just as easily be playing a backyard as a festival. That approach has quietly built a following stretching across the Hallettsville\, San Marcos\, and Gonzales corridor\, the kind of regional momentum that tends to precede something bigger. \nCatch Hicks on the Main Stage\, with the best vantage point down on Independence Square. The vibe runs closer to small town Texas Saturday night than festival spectacle\, easy energy\, familiar faces\, a set built for people who came to listen rather than just pass through. This is exactly the kind of act these festivals exist to introduce. The crowd may not know the name yet. They will by the last song. \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

This is a Red Dirt Texas Country Rock band out of Central Texas that builds its sets around guitars\, drums\, and songs written to fill a dance floor. Shows regularly run three hours\, long enough to work through a stack of hand-crafted originals and still leave room for the chart-topping covers everyone already knows the words to. If you’re the type who shows up to two-step\, sing along\, and stay until last call\, this band is built for exactly that kind of night. \nThe sound sits squarely in the Red Dirt tradition: gritty\, guitar-driven\, and rooted in the same southern rock and outlaw country lineage that runs through the Texas dance hall circuit. It’s raw and unpolished in the best way\, the kind of music that feels lived-in rather than studio-perfected. Their recent single “Pretend” gives a taste of that songwriting on record\, but the band is built for the stage first. \n4740 has been steadily working rooms across Texas\, from Fitzgerald’s in San Antonio to lakeside gigs at Wild Duck Marina in Brownwood to Saturday night sets at Muddy Mike’s in Cisco\, building the kind of following that shows up expecting a good time and leaves having gotten one. Come and Take It concertgoers should expect a band that treats every stop the same way: full effort\, full volume\, and a set built to turn an ordinary night into the kind of night you talk about afterward. \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:Friday Night: Paul Wall

The Houston rapper built his name inside Michael “5000” Watts’ Swishahouse operation\, talking his way from promotions work into the booth itself. He studied mass communications at the University of Houston while his mixtapes were already circulating through the city’s underground. Paired with Chamillionaire in the duo Color Changin’ Click\, he found the sound that would define an era of Southern rap: unhurried\, syrupy\, and utterly confident. \nThat confidence paid off in 2005. The People’s Champ hit number one on the Billboard 200\, anchored by the slab riding anthem “Sittin’ Sidewayz.” Wall’s voice soon turned up everywhere\, a guest verse here\, a hook there. He left his mark on Nelly’s “Grillz” and Kanye West’s “Drive Slow\,” records that carried the Houston sound far past city limits. Along the way\, his partnership with jeweler Johnny Dang cemented him as much a fixture of hip hop jewelry culture as of the charts. \nWhat separates Wall from the pack of his era is longevity\, and a live show built for community rather than spectacle. Onstage he turns bass into celebration\, working big hooks and slow grooves until the crowd is shouting every line back at him\, transforming any room into a piece of H Town. This year alone has found him everywhere: a hometown night at Meow Wolf Houston alongside Lil’ Keke\, a guest turn with Lizzo\, Koe Wetzel\, and Forrest Frank at the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo\, and a genuinely unexpected pairing with a live orchestra for a YMCA of San Angelo benefit called Chopped and Orchestrated. That run lands him back home October 2\, when he headlines the Come and Take It Celebration in Gonzales. \nIt is a fitting booking. Gonzales built its identity on defiance\, on a small town that refused to hand over what was theirs. Paul Wall built his career on the same stubborn regional pride\, refusing to let Houston’s sound get flattened into anyone else’s version of hip hop. The two belong on the same bill.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

Rising out of Seguin\, he built his reputation the old-fashioned way: reading rooms\, blending genres on the fly\, and mastering the art of keeping a crowd moving. Balancing dynamic track selection with a heavy-hitting bass response\, D-T-Rayne transformed from a local favorite into a staple DJ across the regional circuit\, bridging the gap between heavy hip-hop cuts\, electronic anthems\, and modern party tracks. \nThat dedication established him as a premier open-format DJ across the region. Anchored by signature mix tapes like Guadalupe Groove and high-impact tracks like “Guadalupe Drift\,” his sets seamlessly mix heavy bass\, rapid transitions\, and local flavor. Collaborating with regional performers and locking down slots at prominent Central Texas venues\, DJ D-T-Rayne continuously proves that top-tier DJ talent isn’t restricted to big-city zip codes. \nWhat sets D-T-Rayne apart is an effortless ability to read any crowd and shape the atmosphere in real time. Onstage\, he turns every transition into a moment\, building tension with smooth drops and crowd-pleasing cuts until the entire room is locked into the rhythm. That relentless work ethic brings him to the headline stage on October 2 at the Come and Take It Celebration in Gonzales. \nIt is a fitting booking. Gonzales built its identity on defiance and local pride\, and DJ D-T-Rayne built his career on that exact same local grit—refusing to let small-town origins limit a big-stage sound. The two belong on the same bill. \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column icons_position=”left”][vc_column_text] \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

Taking the stage Friday\, October 2\, right after acts like David Farias and La Tropa F\, Ace Boone represents something the Come and Take It Celebration hasn’t put a spotlight on before: a hip-hop artist raised in the same streets he’ll be performing on. \nHis music leans into that hometown identity directly. Across his catalog\, the songs carry a recurring thread of self-belief and earned confidence\, the idea that taking a real chance on yourself is worth more than waiting for permission\, paired with verses about grinding daily to build something out of nothing. There’s a hustler’s mentality running through the bars\, but also a more reflective side\, moments where the music turns inward toward faith\, pressure\, and the weight of trying to make it out while staying true to where he’s from. \nThat mix\, hometown pride layered with hard-won introspection\, is what makes Ace Boone’s addition to this year’s lineup feel significant. He’s not an outside act being booked in; he’s Gonzales’s own\, stepping from SoundCloud onto the same Come and Take It stage that’s carried the region’s Tejano and country legends for years. For a crowd that’s watched this festival grow\, his set is a chance to see the next chapter of Gonzales music get written in real time. \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column icons_position=”left”][vc_column_text] \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
