Since its opening in early June, the Raleigh Downtown Amphitheatre has only played host to a couple of events, with mixed results: this month's Government Mule show was halted due to inclement weather, while the Honda Civic tour headlined by Paramore received strong reviews.

The venue does already have a strong following on Facebook, though, currently boasting nearly 5,000 fans. And on that Facebook page, the Amphitheatre's staff have posted similar messages in advance of two recent shows. The messages state that Deep South the Bar is "your Pre & Post Party headquarters" when attending a show at the venue. The posts tout Deep South's drink specials, as well as the fact that they open 2 hours in advance of each show. In addition, the posts state that anyone with a ticket or stub from a show at the amphitheatre gets free admission for the night of the show.

If you're looking for a little pre-game drinking action, or just want to keep the buzz going after your favorite show, it sounds like Deep South is the place to be.
