Here’s the damn deal assholes…

i am going to see Manu Chao tape at the studio…don’t be jealous, it’s just how it rolls for me, i happen to be a lucky son of a bitch!

I know the right people.

ACL is a mere 7 days away, and while i will only be there for one day, (sacrifice and compromise)…i plan to make the most of it. Get ready for the real deal, this year, i have some help…it will be the most hella, crunk, dank, phat, sweet, bitchin coverage of the entire festival!

We will cover not only the sick music, but also the FOOD, and the people…get ready for Glamour Magazine’s Do’s and Dont’s, only Austin style…

get ready you fucking losers, the shit is about to hit the fan…pictures included!

I like to eat, folks. If you know me, you know that I can eat more chicken cones (Hudson’s On The Bend) than any single being on this or any other planet! So, while I am sitting here at work counting the minutes, I decided to make sure that the cone was in for another appearance this year…AND IT IS! Also, newly added to the list is Aquarelle, the best french restaurant in town!

Never fear, they shall never cease selling the zillion dollar beer, and the most confusing of all beverages for a hot, September music festival…RED WINE! That makes me want to throw up!

Bon Apetite, bitches!

Yes, I was ,indeed. My very good friend is “the big dog” of the tv show and he gives me the tickets I want. He has me spoiled…Anyways, we went on Sunday to see Bette and Pinetop Perkins play and, as ususal, it blew my mind! She was so full of energy and soul and had such a divine stage presence. The studio only holds about 300 people and the sound quality is far superior to anything I have ever heard in my life. It was so emotional, the kid next to me was crying…you know who you are …

Here is where I become a huge stuck up, obnoxious, brat! YOU CANNOT GET TICKETS! You can’t buy them, you can’t trade for them, you just can’t. (I am sure that there are some people out there that can, but most of you cannot) You can listen to the radio to hear the secret location where they will give away the free tickets…if you can even find the schedule of who is playing…and wait all day in line for a “maybe” ticket. No Thank You!!! I will stick w/ my main man on this one…but if you decide to see for yourself, good luck, you’re gonna need it! ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

David Byrne! Spiritualized! Conor Oberst! Strange Boys! I can keep going, but I won’t…go look!

And ps…I need a TICKET!
