    Staying at the hotel, indigo downtown a 1 mile walk to the venue the shows are going to be awesome. What’s a longer wait the line at Franklin’s bbq or the merchandise line
    Having done the midweek Franklin line I'd say the outside merch will be a longer wait and not nearly as satisfying at the end.

    Franklins or Micklethwait or both?  First time in Austin for me and my buddy. Definitely looking for some BBQ and live music! 
    Micklethwait is one of my favs.  It’s byob.  Stiles Switch is another place I just tried for the first time last week.

    Booked an Airbnb today for me and my buddy from Toronto that finally committed....   If I had Bregman's or Tucker's arm, I could hit Franklins with a rock from the location...  it's pretty sweet.

    All you people considering booking high rise condos in downtown, just don't.  There are hidey-holes where you can still find the flavor of what austin used to be south of the river around congress and zilker park or in east austin.... don't buy into what corporate america is selling...

    getting hyped now that I have a touring buddy... gonna be a blast.  I think we are hitting JK on Sunday... and debating committing to my first trip to Franklins either sunday or tuesday... can't wait.
    You’re probably close to my favorite bar, Nickel City. 
    not far at all.  Going to flag that as somewhere to check out!  Looks interesting...  Love the picture on google with the "Moe's" sign over the door... tells me it's my kind of place!

    was planning on heading down to east 6th and dropping in on Zilker Park Brewing and Lazarus Brewing at least one night... I had a great night at Zilker one saturday many moons ago and haven't actually had the chance to sit down in Lazarus, but the beers I have picked up to go have all been great...

    Any recommends on coffee shops in that area?  I have never tried Try Hard Coffee Roasters... certainly looks like it's going to be on my hitlist...

    lol... it's been a long time since I have been in Austin for fun with some time to poke around... usually it's all business :) 
    Houston, Texas... Believe it or not, there are 7 million people here... must be a couple of fans who'd love to see you play.

    Ha, the only thing I can’t help you with is coffee!

    BOOKED IT DANO 
    Any new realizations... would have to wait...
    Til he had more time,... more time...
    Time to dream,... to himself... he waves goodbye,
    To himself... I'll see you on the other side...

    Gonna drop this nugget in here for all those travelers talking Texas BBQ.

    A lot of Texas BBQ places are closed Mondays (notably franklins).

    Had to make a day trip to Austin yesterday for some lite work, had time to stop for lunch and my cohort suggested bbq. After waffling I committed and went to pick a place that was open. Went to Terry black's bbq on Barton springs. Picked it off goggle, didn't even realize their Dallas location is a Texas monthly top 50.

    Blown away. It was steller. Walked in at noon, no line to speak of. Ordered sides and meat without a wait.

    It was spectacular. I could use words again, but already put a review on goggle. Worth the trip. I'll just leave pictures here...

    Looking for opinions from people who have been to the Moody Center. Better view Section 207 Row D or Section 109 Row W? 207 is closer to the stage, but up higher.

    Thanks, between those pictures and some other ones that showed those sections from other views I decided to keep the 109 tickets and sell the 207 ones.
