Last of the three Bigfoot shows. Finally home in Austin. It felt real good sleeping in my own bed last night! We were up at the Parlor with Gravyboat, hicks and Pat Todd for our third afternoon show in a row.
We were second and quite frankly played a pretty great set. After three days, it’s to be expected. Kinda on fire.
And the “boat” and Hicks were pretty great at well but Pat and the Outsiders just killed it again. I know I’ve said that a hundred times, but it’s true. One of the best bands out there, in any style. 11 out of 10 and just fucking awesome.
Here is where we come to the hard part. This was my last show in Austin. The wife and I are heading north to get the hell out of this state and away from the republicans that have been running it for the last ~30 years. It really sucks here. Austin in particular gets more depressing daily. So we made the decision and are headed to Baltimore. That’s right, we are choosing “murder town” over Austin and both of us are backflip thrilled for the move.
I won’t dump too much but if you don’t already own a house or you aren’t going to school, there is no reason to be here. It never was what it wanted to be and it’s way worse than it was.
Gonna miss the hell out of a bunch of people! But we won’t miss this city.
So I’ve got one to go down in SA with Harvey and the Hicks and that is it. Boom!
