Where in the World

These were real popular several months ago, but I didn’t jump on the bandwagon back then. I’ve been to the states and countries in red in these maps, but more importantly, I have not yet been to the places in grey. At some point I will have to fix that.

Yes, you too can create a visited states or visited countries map.

2006 Austin City Limits Music Festival

Filed under: Events,Friends,Music — Cory @ 12:41 am

 [ 2006 Austin City Limits Music Festival ] This weekend I drove up to the capital city for the 2006 Austin City Limits Music Festival.

After last years festival I had decided that I did not want to spent another weekend under the blazing Sun and try to enjoy music. It was just too hot. But when I saw that both Ween and Willie Nelson would be performing, I went ahead and bought two 3-day passes. As it turns out, I had a pretty good time this year.

Friday I was there alone, and I just walked around from stage to stage. I spent more time getting to and from the festival than I did at the festival, but it was fun anyway (although really, really hot). I managed to see Gnarls Barkley and a few other shows.

On Saturday Sandy was able to come with me and we saw String Cheese Incident, the South Austin Jug Band, Brazilian Girls, and of course, Willie Nelson, as well as several other smaller bands.

Sunday morning we met up with Jason at Kerby Lane Cafe for a late Breakfast. Afterwards we went up to the 360 Bridge and chilled for a while, before picking up Katie and heading to the festival. We caught parts of performances from Ween, Matisyahu, Sun Volt, The Flaming Lips, The Greencards and Ben Harper.

At the gates of the festival there were people giving away iTunes music cards that said they were worth $30 towards music from bands performing at the festival. At first I thought this meant that I could pick $30 worth of music, but as it turns out they have a preselected playlist of 31 songs from artists at the festival. So now I have 5 extra cards, if anyone would like one. ;)

If only this sort of thing really worked:

That’s serious geek humor, for those who don’t get it.

Those that know me will understand that I almost barfed reading this.

Ugh, I feel sick.
