The ACL Aftershow Effect

Yeah, yeah, yeah...everyone's talking about the actual event and how great the lineup is this year.  I'm counting down the days to my favorite time year just like everybody else.  ACL is an annual throwdown for me.  Friends come into town, I splurge on food and beer.  It's one of the best weekends of the year.

I can't wait to take in the sounds of Blonde Redhead, The White Stripes (Icky Thump is turning out to be one of the best albums of the year), Icelandic Goddess Bjork, and of course the delightfully, twisted aural assault that is Josh Homme and his Queens of the Stone Age.  That's just naming a few of the great acts playing this year.  But, even more satisfying is the ACL Aftershow schedule this year.  Here's a few of the acts you might catch me at downtown after the festival:

all year is the best time of year in austin when it comes to music...acl is ok but when you can see most of the groups coming for this mass event in more intimate settings, i.e. stubbs, saxon pub, or the continental club..why sit in the heat? great live music in austin is ALL YEAR!!!!

I love, love, love music...just about all of it. At any given moment you can find everything from John Coltrane's "Blue Train" to Motorhead's "Ace of Spades" in my stereo. I also love, in no particular order: movies, books, my moutain bike, iPod, web technology, breakfast tacos, peanut butter, asian food, basketball, tennis, futbol (known in some parts as soccer), all my family, friends.
