Zoney, you were talking about going last year too and it never happened.

Get your ass down here in 07

I'm really excited though. First big band for me is Stars at 3:30 tomorrow, which I've been looking forward to for quite some time. I'll take plenty of photos throughout the weekend and I'll be sure to put em up here.

Sort of off topic but sort of relevant, I just got a ticket for Broken Social Scene at Stubb's in late October and Wilco in San Antonio in mid October. My first BSS experience, my second Wilco.

YES! I really really really need to get to this one. What was my pathetic excuse last year? I think I saw U2 around this time.

I got a ticket for BSS about three weeks ago. You will really enjoy their show!

I have Sufjan Stevens next weekend, BSS and Tapes n' Tapes in a matter of days, and U2 in December!

Suf is here both tomorrow and Saturday nights, unfortunately I'll be at the festival and will miss him this time around.

Tapes N Tapes

be sure to tell me how that is. I love The Loon.

It's been amazing so far, and I'm about to head out to Zilker for the last day (KT Tunstall, Tom Petty, and the freaking LIPS!)

Interesting news though... it's completely pouring down rain in ATX right now.

Glastonbury all over again?

I just watched the stream of Muse's set from the ACL website. Fucking amazing. I hope you got to see them, imp13.

I did, but only for a short while and only from a very far distance. I had a pretty good spot for The Flaming Lips, who had the performance of the festival for me, along with Secret Machines, Iron & Wine, and The Raconteurs. What I saw of Muse was great, but then again they never disappoint.

What a weekend. I had an amazing time, got to hang out with some good friends, hear some good music, and eat some good food. As long as I live in Texas, much less Austin, I don't want to ever miss one of these. It was a lot less hot than last year, so the experience was that much better. I'm just sad it's over so soon, it seems to go by so quick.

Acts I saw this weekend:

Stars
Gnarls Barkley
Ray LaMontagne
John Mayer
Van Morrison
Eli Young Band (Texas Country band, my friend likes them a lot, so I watched them just to kill time even though it's not music I'm into)
Secret Machines
The Shins
Aimee Mann
The Raconteurs
Iron & Wine
KT Tunstall (who was fantastic)
The Flaming Lips
G. Love & Special Sauce
Muse
Tom Petty

Combine that with several bratwursts, and I'd say it was a damn good weekend.

I'd say so

I wonder who'll be on TV...
