I really enjoyed my first Austin City Limits.  Who didn't grow up without hearing about or catching an ACL on PBS.  When I moved to Austin I learned more and more about ACL as the date got closer.  ACL is Austin.  I remember sitting around the house the last day of the event and deciding to go for it so I jump in a taxi.

This is my 1st. shot getting closer to the gate.



The gate:




This band is from New Orleans...it's a real band...i didn't get it until all hell broke out.  This band got me hooked forever on ACL.



During that show, this guy proposed to his g/f.  She really didn't know it was going to happen.



Did you notice the spoons on the ground?  The band played "Ice Cream Man" throwing out hundreds of 1/4 pints of the real thing

Bob Dylan.

I love Austin City Limits. Recently I saw John Mayer, Robert Randolph and the Killers on there. I hope Ted Leo can get on there someday.
