Austin current events

Hey, it Summer time here in Austin. The live music is everywhere but you know it is possible to detect a little slowdown in the movement. We just jumped into Summer about 2 days ago, late this year because of the month and a half of rain. We were in drought for about 6 years. But now that's over and Summer is here for real.

One thing that is fun this year is visiting the lakes. In recent years past, at a restaurant, one would sit outside on the deck. Before the big drought one could look down and see water but during the drought the lakes lost so much water that in some places the deck might be one hundred yards from water. That was interesting. But with all the rain this year the water is back where it should be. We even have one well known venue that was a floating restaurant in the past but during the drought it sat in the sand. Now it is floating again.

But the music is everywhere. Last week my wife and I went for a quiet dinner at a Vietnamese restaurant. We sat down and ordered and began talking. But we were unable to talk because of the band that played. We both support live music so it was okay. But that was just one more piece of proof that there are so many bands in Austin that they have run out of places to play
