  1. So you getting me some tickets this year?

    This festival is really attempting to become one of the premier music festivals. Every year they seem to get bigger and bigger. Many of their big names could headline the whole festival on their own.

  2. Ha! I'm hoping to at least get a pass for myself. If nothing else, a one day pass to see the Beastie Boys.
    Its getting bigger, but I don't think its on par with Coachella or Lollapalooza as far as the line-up goes.
    However, the best part of our local music festival is the aftershows. Many of these bands will play smaller venues after ACL. I think that's what makes our festival unique.

  7. V,

    You HAVE to go. Its like written or something...
    ;)
    I remember the convo, just not with whom. I think the volunteer thing might be the way to go.

    Jenn,
    That would be a sweet gift and you deserve it!!
    I really want to see the BBoys, but seeing Sonic Youth and Phoenix would be totally awesome too. :)
