The design is a recreation of the image that adorned the back wall of the Liberty Lunch stage, where for much of the 1980s and 90s, Liberty Lunch hosted music acts as varied as Oasis and GWAR and was considered by most to be one of the best music venues in Austin. Liberty Lunch's reputation was of being laid back, unassuming and inclusive — everything patrons hoped Austin would continue to be. But it closed its doors for good July 31, 1999, killed off by the inexorable growth as small town Austin morphed into what it is today.
