Fun Fun Fun Fest 2011, Sunday
FunFunFun Fest 2011 is in the books. Sunday gave way to some wet stuff from the sky to knock down some of the dust but overall it was a perfect overcast day for a festival along with plenty of good music as far as the ear could hear. I think the choice to move the [...]
Railroad Revival Tour, Austin
Having played in Austin more times than any other city in the U.S. many music lovers in Austin, and SXSW fans, knew of the London natives Mumford & Sons before their memorable performance with Bob Dylan at the Grammys. On the heels of that performance which thrust them into most radio stations rotations they put [...]
FunFunFun Fest 2010 Day2
Day 2 of FunFunFun Fest is in the books. It was noticeably more crowded than Friday and coupled with the fact that Waterloo Park isn’t as well maintained as parks like Zilker there was a lot of dirt in the air. Although my lungs were filled with dust my ears were treated to some great [...]
FunFunFun Fest 2010 Day1
Feeding Austin’s insatiable need for live music, and a bunch of it in one place, FunFunFun Fest has been packing Waterloo Park in the heart of downtown since 2006. This year is no exception with a great lineup. Weird Al Yankovic closed the show on Day 1 with a barrage of costume changes and in [...]
Nocturnal Festival Texas, 2010
Just as the name suggests, Nocturnal Fest is a four stage all night party where the gates don’t even open until the sunset is drawing near and the gates don’t close until the sun is coming up. Over the labor day weekend twenty five thousand ravers descended upon the small town of Rockdale Texas with [...]
Seaholm Power Plant, Austin TX
The Seaholm Power Plant officially ceased operations in 1989 and the plant has pretty much remained a dormant structure until the last few years. Rather than demolition the City of Austin opted to use the building as a focal point of development in the area. In the last year it has hosted multiple outdoor music [...]
Girl Talk – Free Press Summer Fest 2010
Girl Talk had the whole crowd moving on Saturday night at FPSF. If this doesn’t make you bob your head and want to throw your hands in the air nothing will. Here are some pictures from Day 1 and Day 2 of the fest.
Free Press Summer Fest Sunday 2010
Day two of Free Press Summer Fest 2010 picked up right up where day one left off. It was hot, 105 on the feels like index, and then around 3 PM mother nature threw us a change up, a mid-summer down pour. If you had fancy pants tickets the fancy pants tent was the place [...]
Free Press Summer Fest Saturday 2010
Free Press Summer Fest, I’m impressed. Even though Free Press says on their twitter profile that they hate Austin, it is a great event. Being used to ACL, FPSF is a warm up to ACL. It is easy to get to the event and I love the hill that looks down on the stages. I [...]
Austin Wine & Music Festival 2010
Three days of good wine, good music and good food. That’s what The Austin Wine & Music Festival provided this year. Even with the temperature creeping towards 100 degrees thousands came out to The Domain to get a taste of great Texas wine. I did have a grilled cheese sandwich from Chedds and it was [...]
