Gonna go see Greensky Bluegrass Friday at the small Moody downtown. I don't know their music, going with a friend who likes them, but sounds like they're contemporaries of Billy Strings and play a similar bluegrass/rock/jamband style. I'm sure I'll enjoy it.
My boss is down there right now too, banging his 25 year old smoking hot girlfriend. He's 60 something. I'd say maybe you'll run into him, but I doubt he ever leaves his hotel room. Can't say that I blame him.
I haven’t read the whole thread. Trying to build up United points. Do I just cancel my Chase United card now that I’ve received my sign up points? What next? Get an Amex for the points then go back to Chase next year for more points?
I'm staying at the Tru next door to you. I mapped out a route using Google Maps street view that looks like it will work cutting under the interstate and through the parking lot for the World Trade Center. There's a walkway over the train tracks to get to the Market Center station from there. Little over a half mile walk. If it doesn't work for some reason, I'll just take an Uber.
Seeing Son Volt Thursday at Scoot Inn. Looking forward to it, as they're playing Trace front to back and that's one of my all time favorite albums.
If anyone has extras for that show and is looking to sell let me know. Live Nation dickhead fucksticks have taken over and resale prices are through the roof. I have some friends who want to go.
Saw Idles, Jamie XX and LCD in New Orleans Friday. Idles rocked my ass off as usual. Jamie XX was a DJ. I will never get the idea of a DJ playing a big stage show - DJs are for clubs and always will be IMO. LCD put on a great show, maybe the best I’ve seen from them and my wife agreed. Very energetic and into it. Hot and sweaty ass night in New Orleans but we had a great time. You guys in Dallas really missed out.
Bonus pre-show on tiny side stage from Lost Bayou Ramblers was perfect for the occasion. Those guys are good. See them if you ever get the chance. If you understand coonass French you might even get some of the lyrics.
Any of y'all drive to stuff like SXSJ on Congress? Is parking/traffic a total shit show? Think I'll probably end up in that area and at ABGB several times in the Wednesday - Friday time frame.
On Thursday or Friday the Texassports.com website will post the game day schedule and it will tell you exactly when Bevo shows up just to the southwest of the stadium for a short walk into the stadium led by the band and cheer. Highly recommend it for the kids.
When I used to vote GOP, I actually rarely voted in the general election because there was just no point. All of the GOP guys were gonna win no matter what. I'm sure some of that thinking still persists even in these crazy days.
