  1. was out there Dec 26-Jan 1 and it was way less busy than last year at the same time. was pleasantly surprised.
  2. First sub freezing cook on the wsm. Used more fuel than normal but held temp like a champ. 9 hrs yielded delicious results...
  3. Recently learned about this one

    Jam bands

    billy strings is 100% a jam band.
  5. i would recommend being in the pit or preparing for bad sound. sight lines are fine from everywhere.
  6. speaking of bob weir side projects, what is the general consensus on ratdog amongst GD fans?
  7. Saw golden dawn arkestra at the paramount on Saturday. They had dancers and aerialists and a whole big show. Not sure about the floor, but the balcony was maybe 1/4 full and was an all out drug fueled dance party. Good times.
  8. Weirdly I read this yesterday and then saw the MR RADIO license plate as soon as I got on the service road to IH-35 last night.
  9. Walked around campus last night, timing happened to be right when I passed by this statue...

    Burgers

    Buddy's is solid, and they have beer. Has replaced pterry's for my quick burger spot. Went to the Crown last night, can't beat a burger and $3.50 beer.
  11. interesting story, not sure what to think. seems like the guy could have hiked out if he tried, also seems like the cops are assholes. the cops' facebook post: https://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=pfbid0uQi1F9JY47gLuBQe6DdjkJWKNWudh5Tg5UrFYzda2WeBDwdc7rCdf1AySD9fGKPMl&id=100064442959438

    Metallica

    metallica purists are among the most ridiculous "fans" of any band
  13. south rim over emory peak if you have to choose between the two.
  14. saw harvest time in the theater last night. there's some pretty incredible footage of them jamming in his barn while they're working out the songs for harvest...long jams from alabama and words. neil recording with the london symphony orchestra was also cool. some hilarious clips of them in the studio in nashville, clearly inebriated, recording backing vocals with crosby, stills, and nash. they all seemed to be having a very good time. his ranch looks very badass. if you're looking for backstory on the songs you'll be disappointed, it's more like a snapshot of what the vibe was like during the recording.
  15. Have my dad's old cassette deck hooked up to my system. Doesn't get much use these days but I like to give it a workout every now and then.
  16. Viagra Boys- Cave World: Satirical Swedish rock with infectious grooves and a good sense of humor. Half of these songs would not be out of place on a Ween album. Ghost- Impera: Another Swedish rock album. 80's arena rock with a nod to the devil. hail satan! King Hannah- I'm not sorry, I was just being me: Atmospheric, slow building, trip hop sounding British rock/folk duo. Spoon- Lucifer on the Sofa: An excellent Spoon album that sounds exactly like a great Spoon album. Billy Howerdel- What Normal Was: Depeche Mode/Cure influenced solo album from the APC guitarist. Rickshaw Billies Burger Partrol- Doom Wop: Short and concise rock songs that deliver a punch. Best live show in Austin. Black Angels- Wilderness of Mirrors: Still bringing the psych rock formula and occasionally branching out into new territory. Hooveriii- A Round Of Applause: slightly jammy psych rock
  17. I actually prefer the 2nd half of the album, feels like they're at least trying to explore new ideas with the songs...whereas the first half definitely fits their tried and true formula.

    Vinyl

    Matador Records holiday sale purchase arrived yesterday. All good Sunday morning records. Somehow didn't have any YLT in my collection.
  19. 3 days ago it still would've been a useless recommendation for a concert to see on 12/6.
  20. fuck the "can you talk" text. just call and i'll answer if I can talk, that's how phone calls work. voicemail is not set up on my cell phone so you will not be leaving a message.
  21. Camped at Cedar Hill State Park the Saturday after Thanksgiving. Park has a ton of campsites (350) and they were laid out pretty well to provide privacy. Tons of lakefront, quite nice in the summer I'm sure. Trails were all closed due to torrential rains but we caught a nice sunset after the storm rolled through.

    Vinyl

    that's a very highly regarded Jackson direct drive pedophile.
  23. have been frequenting the silver medal at 290/183. tiny bar that smells like cigarette smoke, has cheap lone star on draft and a solid burger. open 3pm-2am every day. definitely an old school dive.
