1836 Grill and Bar-B-Que is owned by some people from Ripley, Mississippi who had a bar there of the same name, and on February 15, 2026, it was the scene of a night of great Hill Country and Cotton Patch Soul Blues for the benefit of the new R. L. Burnside Museum which the Burnside family is planning.
For the paltry sum of ten dollars, guests got to enjoy nearly six hours of great blues and roots music, from Tate Patrick Moore, to Robert Kimbrough Sr., to Duwayne Burnside, Kent Burnside, Garry Burnside and Kenny Kimbrough, backed by great Hill Country drummers like Buddy Rutherford and J. J. Wilburn, and bass players like Kevin Speight. There was great music, great food and great fun.
