I love music. Blues on the Green last night got me excited. I can’t wait for ACL! The lineup came out today. I’ve got a highlighter and tape to self laminate the color printed maps and schedules I’ve printed.

Blues on the Green is a concert series they set up at Zilker Park downtown. I’ve never been to a concert where I was able to pay less attention to the music. There were way more people than I had expected and I’m surprised this is the first time I went (and that it was Velvet’s idea). They had a great setup going – vendors and that sort of stuff – and the night cooled down perfectly.

I’ve made the improvement to my ACL plan to actually bring stuff this time and stop trying to tough out three days in the sun sans luggage. Mike, my husband, is a great concert companion since he does not actually care what we listen to, as it all sounds like “hippie crap” to him. At least he doesn’t whine.
