20132s Austin City Limits billed a wide array of artists spanning almost every genre, which is suspicious in that Austin's claim to fame, second only to "being weird," is the equally eclectic and massive SXSW. It's sort of mind-blowing that a city with population under 1MM can support as many festivals as Austin hosts these days, but I guess if you build it they will come? Or something?

The annual ACL Festival in Austin, Texas, maybe one of the latter festivals to get in on the game in 2013, but its dual weekend lineup has proven to be one of the more unique and variety-filled options of the festival season. This year's headliners include new wave acts such as Depeche Mode & The Cure, folkier acts such as Wilco, and big rock acts such as Muse, Kings of Leon and Thom Yorke's other non-Radionhead band, Atoms for Peace.  This year, ACL is taking place over two weekends: October 4-6 and [...]

Austin City Limits has always been the odd festival out of the Big Four. Although one of North America's biggest and best music festivals, its presence within the Music Capitol of the World has led to instant sell outs long before it was cool to instantly sell out. Festival organizers have consistently catered their lineups more to the Austin demographics, putting less emphasis on big name reunions or unique gets. Alt-rock, folk, and twang frequently top the bill, and this year is no exception with the presence of Wilco, The National, Kings of Leon, and Vampire Weekend. [...]

I had been on a lucky streak of good crowds for a few shows, so it pains me to ask - Hey Austin, why do ushers have to tell you to put away your phones and shut up at a taping?!?! Pheonix played a lovely set. Too bad I had to wait for said ushers to get out of the way to see the stage as each of the four people in front of us had to be told to put away their phones one by one. Too bad the superfangirls couldn't stop informing each [...]
