Love her. I’ve followed her on IG for a while and she seems like a person who is genuinely having fun doing all that life has to offer. She goes places and does what I would do in those places, which is entirely unlike certain other pop stars or celebrities.

Her recent Austin posts and especially the performance in the Texas jersey are icing on the cake. She posted from Barton Springs.

I'm laughing at the one photo with the dude way in the background, gawking.

Sturgill W2 was one of the best sets I’ve ever seen at ACL. (My first time seeing him live)

Hoping for a Red Rocks show to go to next year

So, 2025 dates announced: 10/3-10/5 and 10/10-10/12. 

Is it more likely that TX-OU will be weekend 2 - 10/11?

I googled and could not find anything published, but it seems to usually be the second Saturday of October.

that is the normal day.  There are a few times when it gets played on the 6th.  It was played recently on the 2nd once(2010), can't remember why.

I would bet a lot of money it is the 11th but the SEC scheduling needs could change that to the 4th.  that is the only wildcard.

For anyone that likes doing VIP, they cut free alcohol this year (and the price down to 1610, what a deal).  So for 1300 extra dollars you get a platform a mile from the stage with bad sound, some air conditioned bathrooms and  a private bar to purchase your drinks.  (This is after the cut the food out last year).  Seems like ACL Fest isn't doing as well as they may lead you to believe, or they are just trying to force people into buying their new cabanas and bungalows for a steeper price.

I had side stage hospitality wrist bands this year and was surprised/disappointed to find a cash bar.  I suspect that is more monetization by Live Nation, which purchased a majority interest in C3 in 2004.  ACL Fest is doing just fine, but there is always more money to leech.
