Sometimes a man brings a town to the bar. Here are photos from the October 27 installment of Welcome To Knoxville to give some visuals to that. Check out shots from The Bends in St. Petersburg, Florida.

The monthly is hosted by Nick Gordon with tunes spun by DJ Knox the MD. Five emcees were given two songs to win the crowd and each one did with success. No stage means the crowd to circles the performer and gets close enough to feed off each others' energy.

Have a look at some photos and listen to Patrick Hagan Lee below.
