    I may or may not have one. One of our clients at work just had to want his stuff done by october 4th which might mean late nights at work instead of ACL :(

    I'll send you a private message if I have to sell.

    I'm not sure C3 could have screwed this up worse than that, IMO. I'm no fan of the YYYs. I've tried listening, but then my ears started to bleed.

    They still haven't filled the Lily Allen spot.

    ACL never really did it for me.

    The only artists I'd really be interested in seeing this year would be Daniel Johnston, Deer Tick and maybe the Dodos.

    Was a huge fan of SY when I was younger, but they really don't do it for me anymore.

    I'm much more excited about Fun Fun Fun Fest.

    Atlas Sound, Broadcast, Les Savy Fav, and the most important of all, the Jesus ****ing Lizard.

    Can't wait!

    If you're a Daniel Johnston fan and you live in Houston, come see my new play based on Daniel's life and music opening this December at Stages Repertory Theatre. The play is titled "Life is Happy and Sad," after a drawing of his. And it stars Matt Brownlie (ex-Bring Back the Guns, Groceries).

    My previous Daniel Johnston play, "Speeding Motorcycle," was a big hit in Houston and Austin.

    Man, that is really awesome. I've met Matt before. My old band played with BBTG. I was a huge fan.

    Keep me updated, man. Will definitely check it out.
