ACL!
Just finished Day 1 of the Austin City Limits Festival 2006. That’s right, I’m going to ACL this year! And anyway, how can you NOT go???
It was pretty awesome. Today I saw GUSTER, Gnarls Barkley, Thievery Corporation, and Van Morrison. I’m going to make it a tradition to add to my growing list of lifetime Guster shows after each one I see, so here you go:
October 1999: TRAX, Charlottesville VA

Summer 2000: Norva Theatre, Norfolk VA

All the shows were good. I was particularly impressed with Thievery Corporation. They had a pretty awesome bass player who played barefooted (just like Than does!).
Gotta go rest for Day 2… SO tired…
