Austin City Limits is coming
The Austin City Limits festival is coming. One more thing that makes Austin cool, and makes me happy I don't live in Dallas. One of the others being that Dallas is a soulless void filled with evil. Anyway, some of the bands this year are
Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers
Massive Attack
Van Morrison
Willie Nelson
The Flaming Lips
Ween
Ben Harper
The Shins
There are going to be a total of 130 bands on 8 stages. Its going to be September 15-17 in Zilker Park.
Here is a map of the festival for 2006.
