christopher said...: Sublime. If you ever make down to Austin, we gotta hang out and hit some shows LOL Great taste.; October 2, 2009 at 10:56 PM
Charles said...: We will do that! Austin may be the best town for music in America, my only visit there was too brief to get around much. Looking at your youtube collection, I'd say our tastes are very similar. Thanks for the heads up on Paco Pena, he was new to me...; October 3, 2009 at 8:59 AM
christopher said...: The ACL starts this weekend, though I tend to avoid it just because of the immense crowds. Carrie Rodriguez is the BEST, and smoking hot too. Though she avoided admitting it for a long time, her best moments come with Chip Taylor in the lead.; October 3, 2009 at 8:32 PM
christopher said...: And yeah, I think Austin far outshines every city except possibly New York (but a lot of Austin musicians fill the New York streets too). You can't toss a cigarette in the air without it hitting a dozen musicians here.; October 3, 2009 at 8:35 PM
Charles said...: Sure wish I had spent more time in Austin. Time was a factor and I had to get to San Antonio to do the mission trail, that was my reason for being down that way. I believe I discovered the Texas Tornadoes on that trip. :); October 4, 2009 at 8:02 AM
