Word. ACL Fest's new motto is "See Bands in Zilker. Hear Them Elsewhere." I mean they always have a few bands I like but at 75K peeps per day it's de facto arena rock. And I mean, more power to peeps if some insipid band makes their day but the vibe at ACL isn't that of a gathering of music fans. It's Disneyland.

I won't do ACL again unless they book McCartney, otherwise the crowd was too damn much for me, and it was hard to hear EVEN IN FRONT OF THE STAGE.

Fuck ACL indeed, this is the only fest I care about in austin. Well, maybe chaos, but this trumps it by far.
