    Dallas tennis and racquet sports facility T Bar M Racquet Club has been transformed into Banner House at T Bar M, a new private club combining sports facilities with hospitality options.

    Located at 6060 Dilbeck Ln., the facility is now under the leadership of WoodHouse, whose experience in the private club realm includes Park House at Highland Park Village, and in Houston.

    Founded in 1972 by Texas tennis legends Jack Turpin, Tut Bartzen, and Clarence Mabry, T Bar M Racquet Club has served as a destination for tennis and racquet sports enthusiasts. The newly transformed Banner House at T Bar M will debut as a next-generation private club, blending world-class racquet sports, luxury hospitality, wellness, and cultural experiences.

    Construction has been ongoing throughout the year, with the original clubhouse still open to members. The new Clubhouse officially opened to Banner House members in early March. In early May, Banner House will host an official unveiling of the expanded facilities.

    Which include:

    • 22 hard courts, three red-clay courts, one grass court, eight pickleball courts, five padel courts
    • wellness spa & resort-style pool
    • dining concepts and members-only lounges
    • Social events such as champagne and caviar nights, supper clubs, and mixology experiences
    • Wellness & fitness events like yoga on the courts, guided meditation, and wellness workshops
    • Racquet Sports training programs, tournaments, and social play opportunities
    • Next Gen Club – For kids and teens, featuring holiday festivals, parent-child tournaments, scavenger hunts, and junior sports academies
    • Culinary & Beverage – A Michelin-starred chef-driven culinary experience, including Japanese omakase at ‘The Nook,’ a poolside taqueria, and intimate dining concepts.

    There's also art from Art Basel, the Dallas Art Fair, and global artists.

    Food and beverage programs will be led by Executive Chef Steven Lartz, who has worked at Michelin-starred restaurants. Options include The Nook, a Japanese omakase restaurant with Executive Sushi Chef Jun Takahashi and Executive Sous Chef Tai Nguyen; a poolside restaurant, The Taqueria, the dining room, garden dining and courtside patio dining.

    Membership prices are … well if you have to ask, you can't afford. Dues start at $195 per month for students aged 21-25.

    A full-club membership for single/unmarried members only who are over 30 is $495 a month. Plus: a $16,500 initiation fee. A full-club membership for single/unmarried members who are under 30 is $345, with a $10,000 initiation fee.

    Aside from getting access to all of the various amenities, Full Club members are given priority nomination privileges, offering the ability to nominate 10 individuals for preferential membership consideration. Very Ponzi scheme!

    Family memberships range from $550 to $645 per month, with initiation fees ranging from $15,000 to $35,000.

    WoodHouse owns and operates Park House Dallas and Houston; Jose, the chef-driven Mexican restaurant; and Dior Café by Dominique Crenn in Dallas’ Highland Park Village. Plus: Citizen House Oklahoma City, Elevation Hotel & Spa in Crested Butte, Pilgrimage Music Festival, and The Moore Miami, a luxury private members club, work space and hotel in the Miami Design District.

    Blue October brings 'Foiled' 20th anniversary tour to Irving for 2 shows

    Blue October are celebrating the 20th anniversary of Foiled this fall.

    Houston-born band Blue October is celebrating the 20th anniversary of the iconic album Foiled with a lengthy North American tour including two nights at The Pavilion at Toyota Music Factory in Irving, on November 27 and 28.

    Beginning in Abilene on October 20, the tour will make several stops throughout Texas, including one in San Antonio on December 12, one at Bass Concert Hall in Austin on Friday December 11, and two closing nights in their hometown, Houston, on December 18 and 19. The band will play Foiled in its entirety on all dates.

    Known for hits such as “Hate Me” and “Into the Ocean,” Foiled reached the top 10 on the Billboard Rock Chart and established lead singer Justin Furstenfeld as one of his generation’s most distinctive voices. The band is also known for its theatrical live shows.

    Along with the tour, Blue October will release a special vinyl reissue of the album on May 29.

    “So now here we are,” Furstenfeld said in a statement. “Let’s show and remind everyone just how special and eclectic that album was. And, most importantly, how much we wore our heart on our sleeve for it.”

    Count Texas BBQ pitmaster Ernest Servantes among the band's many fans. At Burnt Bean Co. in Seguin, rated by Texas Monthly as the state's best barbecue joint, the Sunday brunch menu includes the Blue October — sliced brisket topped with jalapeño cream cheese, strawberry jam, and a fried egg that's served on a croissant.
