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 ...

Keeping Up with ATX local and Real Estate Broker George Vance McGee....

So GVM, how are you feeling these days? What is the married, family man, new dad lifestyle?  Thanks for asking. Believe it or not, despite my youthful glow and aura, I'm now "over the hill" at 42 years of age. Physically I still feel pretty darn good. I try to cycle often on the hike and bike trail of lady bird lake. I've even bought a bicycle rack for my 2010 Nissan Rogue SUV.  As a Real Estate Industry person, I apologize if my lack of a Range Rover or Mercedes Benz car ownership doesn't suffice. In regards to health, being a newborn dad will really sober you up. Coffee has long since replaced booze in my blood system. When you routinely wake up circa 7:00 am to hug your baby daughter, change her diaper, feed her, have playtime and then drive her to daycare/preschool you need to feel healthy, rested and alert. 1 thing I do miss as a responsible married family man, is the carefree, outgoing, live music and bar hopping nightlife of Austin, Texas. Let's be hone...
