  1. Domain? I thought this thread was about Austin!? *duck*
  2. No, they are part of the Grupo Fantasma "tree" like Money Chicha. Quesada was in the band but I'm not sure he plays with them anymore. Great music... have released some excellent albums covering Black Sabbath and Public Enemy. AND when Ozzy likes you...
  3. No, not really new but a great band and these free shows by auditorium shores are great! Best view in town for good live music. You can get the free tickets (have to get them in advance) through the Long Center. Oh, and I'm pissed I missed this Je'Texas show. They're so good.
  4. Its a quick overnight stay to split the trip... I'm not paying Destin summer prices for one night when I'm not really going to enjoy the beach for more than maybe an hour or two (if that). Well, I don't know... maybe not Destin. Maybe Pensacola? I don't know. Really is just a stop for the night.
  5. Yeah, I kind of disagree. Learned to drive in Houston, live in Austin. Coming up on a combined 9 years here in Austin. I'll take Austin. The idiocy is not as far-reaching here - smaller city, traffic is not as bad and the red light running in Houston is insanely bad. Like horribad and you are crazy if you jump that green. T-bone city. Now... hey... can we talk SATX?
  6. C'mon now... this dude is a hero
  7. So you're driving from Palm Beach County back to Austin and you have to make an overnight stop around midway. I'm not stopping in NOLA because we will do that on the way. Below are my options - tell me where to stop and why or why not... 1. Mobile / Daphne, Alabama 2. Biloxi / Gulf Shores 3. ??? 4. Profit Note: Will have teenagers/family with me. I don't gamble.
  8. Based on a thread elsewhere, I'm starting to really appreciate angry bands fronted by women...
  9. There is a great cafe' in Ardmore called "Il Riposo" that has the best suppli and olive ascolane this side of the Atlantic. Ask the owner for his recommendations on wines from Le Marche. You'll be amazed by their selection. They have an amazing sparkling pecorino. Also, excellent espresso. Just kidding. Maybe Starbucks on 35?
  10. Going to keep a lookout for them Meanwhile, no-risk way to discover new Austin bands just announced...
  11. So excited to be at an outdoor concert tonight at Moody Amphitheater
  12. I found them while listening to "Amyl and the Sniffers Radio" (you know how Spotify has "radio stations" if you like a particular band. Anyway, I thought they were pretty good. @jimmyjazz Check out Lambrini Girls... songs like "Love" or "Big Dick Energy". The whole Who Let The Dogs out album is something.

    Tickets this year are crazy which is why we do early bird tickets.
  14. Give me 61 and humid again and I won't complain
  15. I'd like to point out that the past two mornings were incredibly nice in Austin and completely unfair.

    I used those in Amsterdam and saw them in Ghent, too. In Ghent they were funny because they were more like a line of urinals all side by side with little dividers but the front partition stopped at about shoulder high so you could look out and at people while peeing. Pretty funny.
  17. No doubt. Had mother's day lunch out on the back patio yesterday... perfect weather to relax and enjoy the outdoors. This morning was 53. Glorious. That all ends but still, it was a great start to the month.
  18. Africa Night... one of the best things to do in Austin

    Yeah, all things considered the public bathrooms at ACL are surprisingly not bad at all

    Definitely not referring to you. I know you're relatively on top of things. Having a musical family clearly helps, too. I'm talking about the people that see the new lineup and complain because "uhhh I recognize three bands".
  21. Caught The Point again on Saturday night at the Sahara Lounge. Man, their talent and the energy is so infectious. They brought the house down, again. All three of them are great but Nico Leophonte on drums always blows my mind. So good! (Not from that particular show...)

    Right? I love the lineup and have already found some new bands but these guys who complain non-stop... Picture yourself at 21 or 24 or 25 Some 50-year old whines about the lineup at ACL Yeah, dude... that's you! Cut it out.
  23. Been getting into the growing psychedelic Cumbia scene in Austin. A lot of very fun bands.
