For 16 years, Boone County has been the Lower Mainland's premier country venue, offering live music every Wednesday through Saturday nights. It's a great place to see and hear the country stars of tomorrow in the intimate confines of a local club with a contemporary Southwest/Santa Fe look and feel. Not that Boone County is small -- with high ceilings and an open concept, the room is more than big enough for the 2,000-square-foot dance floor to accommodate all the room you could ask for, yet still affording a chance to get close to the music and the performers. | |
