    I'd rather listen to Randy Newman narrating a snuff film than be subjected to Mumford and Sons egregious display of attempted folk rock.

    ****ing sellout mashup artists.

    Its like they said "Hey guys lets be the British version of Kings of Leon"

    I've never been to ACL, but I'd love to see

    TV on the Radio (I'd almost buy a day pass just for them)
    Cut Copy
    Bright Eyes
    Death from above 1979
    Iron and Wine
    Twin Shadow

    Wish I could buy a two-day pass. Don't really care about Sunday.

    How can I become privy to the after shows? Last year I would have loved to catch the Lucero or Monsters of Folk after shows. This year I'd like to know where the shows are, how to get tickets, etc... what do I need to do?

    For the official ones, just keep an eye on the ACL site. They'll probably announce them sometime later this month.

    Yeah I bought mine around that time too and started freaking out when it asked me to set up an account and password. Lucky to get my hands on 4 tickets though.

    i never cared either way about bright eyes till they played in dallas a few years ago and "conner" started going off on texas - this fey little prick deserves a texas-style beatdown for these comments...

    and i have first-hand confirmation of "conner" being a spoiled, whiny little douchebag who complains too much.

    ill see yall at hipster-acl, otherwise known as funfunfun fest.

    every year it gets bigger. just like SXSW.

    I didn't even think that ACL last year was that good, but the amount of people who go now has increased big time.

    The crowd is pretty much what's kept me from going before, but I need to start getting my monies worth out of living in Austin.
