Robert's Western World

Robert's Western World continues to host local and up-and-coming country music talent.

The band BR549 which gained local and national press from its four-hour nightly gig at Robert's Western World went on to open for country singers George Strait, Faith Hill and Tim McGraw.

The building that houses Robert's Western World was used as a warehouse, office space for river merchants, and a variety of other purposes until the late 1950s.

[3] When lower Broadway hit on hard times in the early 1980s, the building was converted to a liquor store until the early 1990s when Robert Moore bought and converted it into a western apparel store named Robert's Rhinestone Western Wear.

After the lower Broadway area rebounded, Mr. Moore added live entertainment, food, and beer.
