sucks they're not selling single day passes this year. got lucky and won VIP wristbands last year. not sure if i'll attend this on or not.
Tickets just went on sale, I think the line-up is pretty good this year contrary to what a lot of people are saying. I'm on the "Standy-By Page" to buy tickets right now.

Anybody going this year?

I JUST got my ticket for weekend one. I am pretty excited since I had to miss Coac a. My major 'musts' on the lineup well justify the price.
Depeche Mode
The Cure
Lionel Ritchie
Queens of the Stone Age
Atoms for Peace
Arctic Monkeys
Grimes
The Verve Pipe
Just got two 3 day passes, my Fiance has never been so it'll be a cool experience for her, now off to sell my kidney on the black market.
I'm gonna have to suc b in the summer and pick up my GF ticket's through Stubhub once this sells out. Surprised it hasn't already. The thought of The Cure and Depeche Mode on the same festival is just mind blowing. Seeing Muse would be fun too. Haven't seen them since 2006 or 2007.
Agreed, plus Foxygen, Purity Ring, Dan Croll... All great bands. It's upsetting that teeny bopping bags automatically diss the lineup because they don't understand it's not all about the headliners (Depeche Mode and The Cure are amazing).
I've got tickets to see Steely Dan and Huey Lewis and The News up here. Gonna be a great summer!
Sounds like a good time, brajI've got tickets to see Steely Dan and Huey Lewis and The News up here. Gonna be a great summer!
This year's ACL lineup blows major . They need two weekends for that ? I'm gonna be in Indiana for half of October anyway (Colts game and minor vacation) so I give zero s, but I was only gonna go to ACL if Nico Vega was gonna be there. Guess they're not cool enough for Austin yet.
I saw Nico Vega twice during SXSW in 2012 dude..Sounds like a good time, braj

Me too with backstage passes
Yes. I rock
Awesome. I boycott SXSW routinely so that explains that.
I can understand that, a lot of people do. As I've gotten older I find myself downtown more and more each year though. Are you a native Austinite?
No, but my parents divorced when I was five and my father has always lived here (went to LBJ HS). I grew up in SA. But I've lived in Austin for almost eight years now.
It absolutely is! I have Alan Parsons and ELO tickets next week, Hall and Oates week after that, Todd Rundgren in June, and Steely Dan in AugustI've got tickets to see Steely Dan and Huey Lewis and The News up here. Gonna be a great summer!
Opposite here, downtown less and less over the years. Too much of a hassle to deal with parking more than anything else, but there are some cool east side spots I don't mind.
Yeah the East Side has def been changing for the better. I work down here, so I have a garage I can utilize, if it weren't for that, I would avoid it.
So east side is good? I'll be looking for an apartment in the next month or so, don't know where to start....
It still has it's rough patches, but it's def on the up-rise. There are multiple brand new apartment/condos over there that look nice and pricey. Austin has run out of space to grow west of 35 so that's the direction it's heading.
I'll be spending money on UT's performing arts season.
Bump.
Next weekend. Tickets are going for below face value on Stubhub for W1 and W2 tickets are still on sale. Guess the kids aren't buying since there is no Killers/Black Keys/etc on the line up.
Here's The Cure performance from Lollapolloza this year. Chock full of hits. Can't wait.
hopefully there won't be as many frat/ bag types as past years but i doubt it with the likes of fun. and others still playing. i'm betting both weekends still get close to capacity. i'm still on the fence but strongly considering it for a few acts alone.
I had a blast this year, my highlights were: Portugal The Man, The Cure, Vampire Weekend, Phoenix, Depeche Mode, Kings of Leon, Franz Ferdinand and QOTSA.
tickets going for as low as 100 for weekend two. i hear both depeche mode and the cure put on great sets, think i might go.
That's a steal, and yeah they both were great - hit after hit.
