It seems as if only these horrid emo bands, country artists and a few bad hip hop stars are the only people who have been playing austin lately. I remember back in high school and middle school there was always a good show from a good artist atleast twice a week. Don't get me wrong... there are hundreds of artists worth seeing just from this area... but there aren't any good national or touring acts coming through the ATX any more. It's as if they would rather hit san antonio, houston, dallas then make their way to el paso or lubbock. Seems the only times any acts that i dig come are either when im out of town, at work, already have plans or the show is sold out to the point where scalping is at an outrageous price. Oh well... thats why we have youtube, right? So we dont have to pay to see an artist live that isnt coming near us anyways.
