Yeah stinks he had plane problems and was an hour late but he ran through some hits and kept going until they cut his mic. Was a fun 30 minutes at least.
We left when it got to time for him to come on and there hadn't been any update whatsoever... like just give us a fake time and we might have waited. Fucking hilarious that after about 10 min of his original show time the ACL people realized they could ADHD the fuck out of the crowd and do some half ass "drone show" to rap music to make everyone forget Kendrick was MIA. Right when it started Mrs. Lau goes "oh hell no they're not babysitting me with drones until he gets here I'm out" but that shit worked for real as we were walking out the crowd was cheering and shit like yall thirsty ass mfs out here really cheering for 30 drones making the shape of a face So far: Half-Alive was a fantastic a real fun day show. Wasn't expecting that and no homo whatever but the dudes dancing on stage made that show really tight IMO Major Lazer fuckin sucks. I guess quality took a hit recently. That show was a pretty big letdown. Too much hype guy and then like the guy on the right was just a towel guy that danced and spun a towel around? Above & Beyond was great. Made up for Major Lazer Kingfish > Poolside > Chromeo was incredibly fun yesterday. Poolside was the best chill vibe of the weekend. Chromeo bringing out all the old disco style music from ~2014 was nice and had that Titos tent a huge dance party Bob Moses was really fun too. Had no idea it was a full band until they came on stage
Fantastic way to close out the weekend. Sucks that it was a sunday night show but I'm okay with it. Kinda needed to be the last show of the weekend because I my body pretty much tapped out after that show was done. Another year of overreaction complaints about a lineup being mediocre that ended up being an incredibly fun weekend. Just gotta give the artists on the card a chance
Friend of mine got to go to the foo fighters at Austin city limits last night I'm so fucking jealous Said they played for like 2.5 hours Most recordings there only go for like 70 minutes
Uchiba literally opened a few hours ago, if you can get a reservation, you’re totes getting laid buddy
I personally like Uchiko because it’s a more diverse menu but can’t go wrong with Uchi either and that happens to be in a better location
Thank you I will be celebrating whatever it is that happens at blind pig pub on 6th street after if anyone wants a lone star or 2 on me
weekend 2 forever kendrick, odesza, FKJ, above & beyond, sidepiece were fantastic still not over kali uchis skipping
Caught the last few hours of each day weekend 2 which was lots of fun, but my allergies are fucked. Wife thought the folks with bandanas were cautious COVID folks, said nope think it’s the dust and then started sneezing and haven’t stopped. Whatever, bless these sub 90s highs.
You guys know of any spots with good mocktails/NA options in the city? I’ve made the decision to try and quit drinking but would still like to go out and be social and enjoy good food if I can
Of the various BBQ places in Lockhart where do you guys recommend? I feel like getting out of my Austin bubble a bit.
Kruez was one of my old firm's clients. They've got good Q. Blacks and Terry Blacks would be the next two in that order probably
Anybody hitting up Freaky Deaky this weekend? GF's whole crew is going so she got us VIP tix "to hopefully let me enjoy it more and not be miserable" Gonna hit up Gary Clark Jr. free show at LBJ lawn and then head out to the boom boom fest. Definitely not my cup of tea outside of ~3 artists but I'll get high af and people watch and have a good time. devine if you don't have shit going on tomorrow around lunch that GC Jr. free show will probably be pretty fun and is in the middle of the whole gameday atmosphere or whatever if that's something you're into.
I went to Kruez for lunch today and was really underwhelmed tbh. I wonder if I just had bad luck or something because it has amazing reviews.
Hate to hear that. Maybe it's gotten worse since Covid? That's when I stopped working for the company and haven't had it since. But their catering that we got every ~2 months at the office was always some of my favorite. Also the partner on the account would bring in a cooler full of sausages and stuff from Kreuz for everyone to take home that wanted it and that's what was really the bread winner.
thanks, I’ve found some good spots that do mocktails and I still enjoy myself too in a perfect world weed would be legal here and I would just do a gummy and sip on mocktails at bars
I definitely take a weed pen with me everywhere I go and am not shy about smoking it in public. Doesn't reek of weed and smells like a normal vape. Concerts normally drink a redbull on the way and take a delta-9 gummy. The day dream gummies from Mary Jae are splendid for feeling loose but also social and not glued to a chair
