INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) The owner of Indianapolis honky-tonk Duke’s Indy, Dustin Boyer, was known for putting Indiana on the map for country music.
Before the 40-year-old’s death on Friday, Boyer poured his heart and soul into his bar. Inside the honky-tonk is where he made his mark on Indianapolis and on every person who walked through the doors.
Friends and musicians are remembering the honest, humble and good-time guy who had a passion for “real” country music. A fundraiser for Boyer’s family will be Friday night at Duke’s, but it was already a sold-out show by Monday night.
This week’s roundup of Indy’s hottest dining news.
