About This Event

Retro music nights meet trivia at JR's weekly Tuesday gathering — spin the dial back through the decades while testing your knowledge of the songs that defined them. It's the kind of low-key, reliably fun evening that keeps regulars coming back: good music, friendly competition, and a room full of people who actually know their stuff.

Tuesday nights at JR's blend two things that work better together than they should: retro hits spinning on the sound system and trivia that'll test what you actually remember from the 80s, 90s, and 00s. It's the kind of low-key weeknight thing that builds a crowd of regulars who show up for the music, stay for the banter, and somehow always know the answers to questions about one-hit wonders.
