The official schedule for the Austin City Limits Festival won’t be released until Thursday morning, but here’s a sneak peek on this glorious Wednesday night:
For those of you lucky enough to be headed down to Austin’s Zilker Park on September 23rd-25th, turn on your printers, get out that red pen and prepare to plan your assault on the city.
Ace’s Two Cents: As a whole, Day One looks the most appealing, as the festival gives you a chance to catch Leo Kottke and Mike Gordon > MOFRO > Government Mule, plus you’ll see the Allman Brothers and the Black Crowes to close it out.
Although, the prospect of Robert Randolph and the Family Band > John Butler Trio > Dirty Dozen Brass Band > Widespread Panic > Jimmy Cliff > Oasis? > another set of WSP does seem masterfully appealing.
Either way, fun times ahead in the state of Tejas.
