October: Texas Concert Listings

ACL.jpg

The Austin City Limits Festival is this weekend, and while it will unfortunately take place minus Merry Swankster representation, there’s no reason to sour an otherwise tremendous month of music in the Lone Star State.

But just for fun, here’s who’d I see if I were making the trip to Austin: Blitzen Trapper, Avett Brothers, the Walkmen, Phoenix, Los Amigos Invisibles, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Deer Tick, the Ravonettes, !!!, Grizzly Bear, Flogging Molly, …And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead, Bon Iver, Mos Def, the Decemberists, the Dodos, Heartless Bastards, Arctic Monkeys, Dirty Projectors, the Dead Weather, Girl Talk and Pearl Jam.

And if you can’t swing a day or weekend pass to the ACLF, a solid number of acts will be playing in and around the city for the extended weekend.
