Boy, you're not kidding! Listening to the weekend concert calendar on OZ takes about 10 minutes these days. Great to see.

SATURDAY, May 3

In a late scheduling change, Austin roots rock singer-songwriter Alejandro Escovedo headlines Chickie Wah Wah; opening the show are guitarist Spencer Bohren and the Radiators' Dave Malone.

What a great way to start 2nd Sat at Acura with Alejandro Escovedo.
Need to catch him & his band again asap.

Just looking at the lineup is mouthwatering crazy. While I can get to good shows it takes hours and lots of effort. New Orleans is the place to be for sure. Enjoy you locals.

I agree about the line up for Acura Fred. That would be awesome.

If 1/4 of the people who went to JF made periodic trips back 2 or 3 times a year, think what a boon that would be for the local economy. I know several people here on this board do just that. It's a shame more don't. I'll be back in July(yikes)and will try again in the Fall.
