  1. Always struggle to find a decent place to eat in Trinidad, it's such a depressing town. One year when we stopped they were having a music festival called Trinidaddio that was as sad as you might expect.
  2. back in the early 00's this was my go to cheap hotel. the cab driver would always warn us not to walk around outside the hotel after dark. it was rundown and creepy as fuck back then, i think they said it used to be an orphanage. was shocked to see its current upscale incarnation when i finally made it back to that area in 2022.
  3. the end of their relationship was the genesis of the tom petty song "don't come around here no more". from wikipedia:
  4. life during wartime and naive melody are 2 different songs.
  5. haven't seen the movie but this is the only negative review i've seen. people seem to love it.
  6. you got lucky. the other 3 people i know who tried for tickets were 25,000+ in the queue. everyone was in the waiting room 15 minutes before on sale.
  7. i was 8900 for denver, all that's left is limited view seats behind the stage.
  8. it has to be bots buying all these tickets. there's no way a 20,000 capacity arena is selling out this fast. i've never had trouble getting nin tickets before.
  9. got shut out for ft worth. 8000 in the queue ahead of me and no tickets left by the time it was my turn.
  10. mc5 kick out the jams deserves consideration
  11. sunday i pretty good but i can't stand far out lounge so probably gonna skip it.

  13. rickshaw billie's burger patrol at antone's was great. ended early so we walked over to congress and 9th where exotic fruitica and throat piss were playing a free show. the sound in the place was terrible but exotic fruitica was pretty good, throat piss was strange.

    Vinyl

    haven't been to waterloo in probably a decade. went all the time when it was the only independent record store in town, but now that we've got so many great options it's just not worth the hassle of going down there. i assume it's 90% tourists in there these days.
  15. ciro's special with chicken was always my go-to. they took it off the menu pre-covid and i don't think i ever returned.
  16. they recently closed the location on barton springs and the one at 35 and howard. i believe there are only 2 left in austin.
  17. going back to the days then they were doing fundraising parties at empty lots on the east side...their beer has always sucked.

  19. david allen coe at billy bob's around 2000. too drunk to play anything, covered a kid rock song. george clinton at auditorium shores 2005. george clinton wasn't on the stage for 75% of the show, and when he was he might as well not have been. yngvie malmsteen at the back room 2001. his guitar was unbelievably loud in the mix, ear piercing even. he would play these super fast solos that didn't fit the songs and then do a leg kick and flick a pick into the audience..this happened about 5 times per song. he did all this while wearing a leather jumpsuit that hadn't fit his fat ass in at least a decade. the entire front of it was unzipped and his huge belly hanging out. foxygen at mohawk around 2014. the lead singer was clearly having mental issues, spent the first half of the show rambling incoherently and trying to figure out which microphone he was supposed to sing into.
  20. spent some time in pine canyon #1. silence, solitude, expansive views...all i could ask for.
  21. retard spoilage is a good band name
  22. once at a bar in downtown austin a british dude walked up to me and said, "i'm on holiday do you know where i can find any gear?" i had no idea wtf he was talking about. turns out cocaine is what he was talking about.

    Pearl Jam

    i constantly have a browser open at work checking in periodically to see what's available. it's worked and i've eventually found good seats every time but it's a beating. alternatively i could stick with the nosebleed seats that are the same price as floor seats for some reason.

    Pearl Jam

    got nosebleeds for nashville. will be playing the upgrade game until the show. i know pj claims to be trying to make things fair but this ticketing system fucking sucks.
