The Austin City Limits Music Festival 2024 Experience.



 Austin City Limits Music Festival 2024.

GVM's Customer In person attendance Review / Synopsis

Friday; Blink 182 sounded awful live, which was sad. I was a genuine fan, but all world banging drummer Travis Barker's talent could not save the 2 front-men's lingering age, lack of caring effort and just bad musical sounds.

Chris Stapleton was much better on the ears! One of the female patrons said his appeal is, "the beard and the voice." I would agree his music is much more welcoming and country, but not too country if you know what I mean.

Saturday: Foster the People sounded pretty good live. They are a contemporary band in the 2010-2019 Decade. Their band comps are MgMt and maybe Tame Impala. 

The Headliner Showstopper was Dua Lipa. She is a worldly model-level beauty. She is also talented, superb voice, upbeat popular songs and Dancy fun. One of my Top 5 All time ACL ever Performances, right up there with Paul McCartney, George Strait & the Killers. 

Sunday; I only had time to pick up my lounge chair and watch the Rise and fall Midwest Pop sensation Chappell Roan. She packed Zilker Park! She is super popular. 26 year old Chappell was excellent with her stage presence, fashion style, lead singer moves and songs. "Pink Pony Club," "Good Luck Babe," Hot to Go."

This year in 2024, the weather very HOT for October. The outside weather all 3 days was arid, dry and full of dead grass. The Beers each averaged around 12-14 dollars after tax, 1 dollar tip etc.

Austin, Texas has a DOG PROBLEM.....

  Austin, Texas has a DOG problem (Letter I wrote and sent) Dear Austin City Council Members, Hello and well regards, Yesterday afternoon during a simple bicycle pedal exercise ride, I was physically chased by an unleashed Pitbull dog in ZILKER PARK. Then directly after recovering from almost being mauled by an unleashed pit-bull in Zilker Park, I attempted to buy a Gatorade at a nearby Barton Springs Road Market, but that didn't go well either, as an interior Market commercial customer had a massive mixed breed dog trolling through the diminutive shopping isles. Then this morning, at a Coffee shop on SoCo, there was only 1 entry way in and out, and there was another large, although more docile mixed breed dog. All of this has occurred in less than 24 hours. What's the point? The City of Austin's dog friendliness and citizen enabling of irresponsible dog owners has gotten out of control. Newsflash! Not everybody like dogs, being everywhere all the time. especially within ...

I got up early and went = ESPN's Live College Football Gameday Show @ University of Texas - Austin Fall 2024

 I awoke circa 5:30 am this past Saturday, took a shower, grabbed a quick bite to eat and coffee@ QT; then rode my moped down to the University of Texas, South Lawn or "6-pack" area to view the LIVE ESPN taping and broadcast show, COLLEGE GAMEDAY. When I arrived on campus at 6 am it was still dark and there were plenty of fans already there. The actual LIVE College Gameday Show started at 8 am Central Time. We as fans are simply backdrop visuals and noise for the show. There were tons of fans signs, almost too many to even read. All of the On-Air TV Talent was friendly and excellent! Desmond Howard, Lee Corso, Pat McAfee, Kirk Herbstreet, and Nick Saban. Pat McAfee is the "get the home crowd revved up" talent, which is needed for the live show. Overall it was quite entertaining and free to attend. It'll get your Saturday juiced up. https://promo.espn.com/collegegameday/
