All I Want is You || September 12, 2007

Austin City Limits Festival is this weekend. Anyone else heading down?
Not much by the way of a DFW presence at this year's fest, but we do get Midlake and St.Vincent (who was added to the bill yesterday).
If you are in Austin, but do not plan to hit Zilker Park, you will still have a chance to catch a couple of locals at club shows through the weekend.

Ghosthustler are playing the Friday night Factory People/DFA after party at Red 7 with Clap! Clap! and DJ sets by LCD Soundsystem and Guns N Bombs.

The Hot Freaks crew has put together some great after shows with the likes of Grizzly Bear and Art Brut, but we all know you will be heading over to the Mohawk around midnight Saturday night to see St. Vincent.

Also, fans of St. Vincent really need to check out her version of the great Beatles tune "Dig a Pony" over at p4k today. Link here.

Spamboy said...: Yeah, we went down and had a decent time. The schedule chaos settled down by the time we arrived, and what we saw put on great acts even if the material wasn't the hottest (re: Killers, Arctic Monkeys, Muse, etc.). As for St. Vincent, she gave it a try but had terrible sound; I'd like to hear her in a better venue when not drowned out by larger, louder acts.; 4:07 AM
