Who's going to Austin, TX, 05-02-13 TIME CHANGE pg 1 !!

Nick, call the venue about parking. They should be able to answer

I would ask about chairs too. Even though the website says you can bring chairs in people can bring them in they have been turned away.

I've been monitoring the chair issue on several sites. It seems to be an issue. I contacted the venue and asked about everything from stadium seats to those Tommy Bahama style that sit low to the ground. Here's the response I got back.

Cheryl,

The basic rule about chairs in the lawn seating area is if it has legs than it will not be permitted. Blankets and chairs with no legs that sit upon the ground would be fine.

Thank you,

I wonder if Django will show up in Austin?
I mean, his parents do live in Austin

I have a feeling there will be a happy birthday Willie song in there since Willie turns 80 this week.

I'm prepared for cold, sun, wind and rain on Thursday. Lol

[Bucarader]

Does anyone have any idea what time the venue opens? 5pm?

Thanks for posting the video, Molly. I'm really impressed with the song, but more impressed with the screen behind Jimmy. Lots of sights to see.

The more I hear the song, the more I like it


Janice, me too---I just added some cheapo ponchos. Would rather have them and not need them

Does anyone have any idea what time the venue opens? 5pm?

On my parking ticket it says, "Opens 3 hrs prior to event". Not sure if this refers to the venue itself, but the parking opens a lot earlier than that.

Just saw the forecast for Thursday...looks like a front comes thru Wednesday night

High 70

Low 48

Partly cloudy

I am thinking a this may be a jeans and sweatshirt concert for me. Sounds like it may warm back up in Frisco and be a nice day on Saturday.

This forecast is about the worst I've ever seen for one of his shows! I've seen torrential rain in Dallas but it was still warm. This is cold and rain! No shorts or flip flops for me. Looking like jeans and a coat weather!

[LIPH]

The bad weather must be following me. It rained like a mutha in Nashville Saturday. Coming home yesterday, I had to change planes in Atlanta. There were all kinds of delays because of bad weather there. Now I'm home and it's been raining pretty much all day in Myrtle Beach. I hope this isn't a sign.

[txaggirl91]

Local Austin stations say rain early Thursday morning. Then it will be breezy and cool.

Will it be cold for the show? Yes. Low 50s/upper40s at show time.

I think it is for the lot. I'm guessing 5:00. But I will call and post what I find out later.

[txaggirl91]

Lots open at 9 am.

Doors open 2 hours before show starts

Looking "okay" so far for the show. Might need to bring layers.
