ATX, ACL, SXSW, TMB, IDK, LMBO

buddy went to midnight cowboy wednesday night and drank with GnR for a little while. kinda jealous. also kinda don't know how I'd feel about hanging out with the Jared Lorenzen version of Axl

 

did my official artist scan for undercard people and am kinda fuckin stoked for Sunday next weekend.

• 12:30 Drew Holcomb and his wife have a Chris Stapleton + wife thing goin but more americana
• 1:15 Chick in our crew put us on Still Woozy
• 2 Joseph sisters can sing and sound like head and the heart
• 3 Bea Miller
• 4 Skipping Rebelution after hearing GoGo Penguin. Holy shit they have a dope sound. Electro-Jazz? Like a diet STS9. And I've seen Rebelution like 10 times including 420 fest in April
• 5 Caamp or Wrabel. JacobPalmer does BANKS translate well to live performance? Feel like she ain't got what chicks like Bishop Briggs, Billie and Sylvan Esso have and would be like a worse version of Chvrches/Phantogram.
• 6 Bruce Bruce
• 7 Griz
• 8 Mumford for lack of better option

12:30 - 5pm I'm v excited for since I've never seen any of them live and those first 5 acts have great sounds

 

hood b. goode shoot me a text this weekend. we got a smaller crew since half went this weekend and only 6-7 of us goin next week. not doin much Friday besides GnR but Saturday we're hittin Baby A's on the way in for the mid-day rap fest startin at 11:45 with Armani White, Taylor Bennett (didn't know Chance had a little brother in the game), and Denzel Curry. Probably wander around and do food/merch and Beer Hall for some football until Billie > 21 Savage > Gambino.

squad mixer open invite. anybody else feel like kickin it in any of those shows saturday or the sunday schedule above shoot me a PM and I'll give you my number to meet up

 

I’ll throw some recommendations the next few days when I’m sober

But y’all

Austin rules

 

this weather oh my

 

Went for a walk at 6am, ‘twas glorious

 

Ill hit u up, Gambino gon be a religious experience

Cant wait

 

It's good. What is it you have a question about? Good location decent pool, good restaurants good location

 

None that I have encountered, I live here but I have friends stay there from time to time and they never have any complaints

 

high 60s- low 70s weather

 

After today

 

80% chance of rain tomorrow. Godddddd that would suck. Park is already destroyed from weekend one. Dump some rain on that? No plz

 

Should clear up by noon, so if you can deal with mud and a slight chill it should be all good.

 

The temperature im definitely down for. The worst parts of ACL for me traditionally those 3 PM sets where its a billion degrees haha

 

Hoping that it’s one of those 15min showers that just gets rid of the dust and shit that seems to be a thing at ACL.

It would take a 2-3 hour monsoon to actually make flooding or mud an actual problem since it’s bone dry right now

 

Thats a good point. The dust is the fucking worst

 

Drove by today on commute and surprisingly didn’t look that bad out there. Aka the grass is still green not trampled khaki. All positive vibes here. Workin til noon tomorrow and headed down for Camino Jai and KFlay before rendezvous with crew at my apt/Gibson bar for GnR predrinks.

 

Tyler Childers will be at Whitehorse tonight at 12. So will I.

 

Brrrrrrrr motherfuckers. Wasn’t expecting 55 this morning

Did some recon with the furball this morning. Standing water in the street and some sidewalks. Didn’t see any in the usual spots at Zilker (from what I could see in fence gaps) and the grass around outside wasn’t mush. Feel like by 1-2p it’s gonna be 70s and glorious

 

I'm hearing they are lowering the expected high to the 60's

 

Decided to pop in on Saturday

Don’t miss Gambino

 

where you seeing this? I just got into town so I’m missing his set at ACL. Tickets needed for white horse?

 

don’t think we’re gonna make it to 70 this afternoon

 

High of like 56. I’m bundled up.

At Gourmands

 

So no Tyler. People were mean. Left.

 

What does he play these days? I say this bc I saw him twice in 2014-2015 and honestly his music since Because the Internet is... okay. Few bangers but doesn’t compare to Camp/BTI. And I’m hearing really good reviews on The Cure, who a month ago I couldn’t tell you a song they played.

And the crowd at Gambino is gonna be that high school/college crowd that is a plague at music festivals

 

GnR was so much better than expected last night. One 2.5hr show was a perfect kick off for us. Just went for them and went home.

First time in 6 years I went in without any illegal substances... and the faggot super-checker made me throw away my juul. But of course the crowd around us at GnR was burning goddamn cigs

 

Sorry just seeing this, my cell service at Zilker sucked. I met up with one of Tyler's buddies at Buford's on Thursday night and he told me that. Was supposed to be a secret show. I don't think he ever ended up playing.

 

I went. He did not unless he did later.

 

2 days ago, but regardless

 

Yikes my b haha

 

Was about 10 rows back for Childish. It was a religious experience.

 

The Cure was great but from what I've seen Gambino was better.

Billie's sound person should be fired. Biggest disappointment of the festival. I understand she talk-sings but that just means turn the fuckin mic up more. literally could just hear the beat and girls singing around you. Crowd for that one was awful amirite hood b. goode real bad decision going across for wine/piss instead of back that was a nightmare.

Hippie Sabotage was also a big disappointment. all I remember was 1 2 1234 and shitty beats.

Rap game saturday early was strong on 2 purps. Armani White is a very good rapper

 

Goin to Philly to visit brother and see Dermot Kennedy at the Fillmore next Thursday. Fly back on Sunday and headed to Stubbs for Bishop Briggs.

 

Alamo Drafthouse season pass and +1 add on: $38/mo. Unlimited movies at one per day for me and a guest of my choosing. Already used twice this week. Gonna be abusing this thing during holiday Oscar season aka edible and hoodie movie season with SLamar one being across the street. $1.72 convenience fee for each ticket when you get one.

does have the safeguard of needing my phone and ID so you can’t just go around giving away tickets.

 

That's a sweet deal living right there

 

from 90 to 40 degrees in 2 weeks

fuck not having a fall season

 

F1 brought a lot of dimes into town...im confused

 

Get tix to the Kygo and DaBaby charity thing Saturday

I’ll be out there. Easy to get tickets.

 

Presale for C3 up for Apocalyptica on 5/6/2020

 

It's okay. Overpriced hotpot. I took a date there and it was 175$. Little sheep (when I was open) was just as good if not better for 50 bucks

 

spend an afternoon exploring zilker park / town lake, hit the barton springs food trucks, hit house wine for a drink
