festival goers

Eric Uhlir

The boys of Vampire Weekend gave an early start to the festival, serenading souls left and right.

The New York natives kept listeners entertained and sustained throughout the hottest part of the day. Most songs were familiar memories from their self-titled debut album, but a few new tricks were released during the show.

Festival goers could be seriously damaging their hearing, a leading charity has warned.

The Pachanga Latino Music Festival, Austin’s first Latin-themed music, cultural arts, and food festival, is offering 2 for 1 tickets from now through Sat 5/24.

Buy one $18 ticket, get one free!

If you can’t afford, or can’t physically handle, a three-day wristband to ACL, single day tickets are on sale May 13th through the festivals website.

This very same day the festival grid will be released so those of you already anxious to get a head start on planning your ACL weekend can get busy.

I can already hear the frustrated sighs of realization, as festival goers realize that alas, they will not be able to see every act on the line-up they had hoped for!
