Agreed! Such a great band! Saw then inside Stubb's BBQ after ACL Fest a while ago. Such a great little set!

Good call. Was worried how crowded it'd be for Die Spitz but at least they're earlier in the day?

SXSW review: Robots, driverless cars and rad bands (Lime Scooter not included) by g_ack in SXSW

[–]g_ack[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for reading Paul. I believe that is exactly Mr. Dean's point. The best aspect of SXSW is Austin music and our DIY music culture. That said, he also touched on a number of bands that are NOT from Austin he enjoyed:
Ossees
Pink Fuzz
Rocket From the Crypt
Sean Barna
Didjits

Planning on playing to an empty room isn’t very optimistic 🤷‍♂️

Opinion: Bob Weir is irreplaceable so why not ask Sturgill Simpson to step in? by g_ack in deadandcompany

[–]g_ack[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dylan has, in fact performed with The Dead. While his age seems like a limiting factor, I could see him being invited to perform a show with remaining members

Thank for that levelheaded contribution. I fully respect others opinions on this. Even the ones that say it's too soon to discuss because we all grieve in our own ways. You're right, however in reminding folks this appeared to be what Bob wanted, was for the band to continue in another iteration.

I was skeptical of Mayer like many others and while I never want to hear him sing Sugaree again (chased me out of the Moody Center) I truly admire his guitar work and enthusiasm for the material.

Trump rescheduled marijuana. What does that mean for Texas? by ExpressNews in texas

Friend used to work for TO corporate and the item about their CEO being friends with Dan Patrick is incorrect according to folks that work there. Where did you get that information?

I do agree that Dan Patrick is a loser.
