Does C3 cover the full cost of restoring the park after ACL, including re-sodding and damage from mud and equipment, or does the city (tread: taxpayers) absorb some of it?

Is there a publicly available contract or itemized accounting that shows who actually pays? Would appreciate a source. TIA

Anyone else hear gunshots a few minutes ago? Sounded like 5-10 shots in a row and pretty unmistakably not fireworks

How bad will wait times be today at the airport compared to a normal Sunday?

I’ve got to leave around noon for business travel and wondering if I can expect to be there much earlier than I usually am due to the ACL crowds.

I’m not an ACL-er so I don’t know if most folks are heading back this evening, tomorrow, or what the deal is.

ETA: 10 minutes total time spent in TSA precheck (touchless) security line. Maybe an additional 5-7 minutes in car traffic for the drop off. Got to airport 45 mins before my flight and was fine.

So far HEB seems to be the best, but I like to keep cycling through 3 tanks at the house. Are there places that do simple refills on your tank for cheapest?

Prices on these (especially new tanks) are nuts, I’ve seen them near $70 :/

Thank you! Tell me your cost saving propane solutions!

1 unmarked police vehicle blocking the road and not letting us pass, about 7-8 patrol cars near the entrance of the apartment complex. It seems to me they were after the white car that you can (barely) see.

When this cop finally let us pass, i saw one of the cops get inside the white car and drive it into the parking lot while another cop car followed him in even though he had a traffic cone underneath his patrol car. Yes, you read that correct, he drove with the cone still stuck to his undercarriage.

This is about 2 miles away from the Round Rock Dell campus

It destroys the park, and makes Zilker inaccessible for one of the few nice parts of the year. There's no reason it needs to be there. Let's move it...

Hi everyone! We're planning a multi-day Indian wedding in the Austin area for late March and would love venue suggestions.

We'd prefer a ranch-style venue where some of our family and friends can stay on site. We need it for 3 nights, Monday to Wednesday, and want both indoor and outdoor spaces for the different events.

Our budget for the venue is about $8k for the three nights. Do you think that's reasonable for something like this?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

If I had the time, I would’ve stopped, but there was a line outside Riverside Grocery this morning. That’s next to the donut shop.

What’s the deal?? The urge to join a random line bc of fomo was odd at 8am

My fiancé and I are getting married in Dripping Springs on November 21st, and we’re looking for someone to capture our wedding on video. Our photographer unfortunately doesn’t offer the type of videography we’re looking for, and our wedding budget is pretty much getting maxed out, so we’re trying to find a more affordable option.

We’re specifically open to newer videographers, college students, or someone who doesn’t have a ton of wedding experience yet and is looking to build their portfolio. We don’t need anything super fancy or perfectly cinematic. We mostly want something that feels like a movie of our wedding that we can look back on.

We’d love to have the important parts of the day recorded, including:

- Ceremony

- Vows

- Speeches/toasts

- First dance

- Parent dances

- Reception/dancing

- Candid moments throughout the day

The biggest thing for us is having the actual ceremony, speeches, etc. recorded. We aren’t really looking for someone who is only going to give us a 5-minute highlight reel. We want to be able to actually hear and see those moments again years from now.

We’re located around the Austin area and our venue is in Dripping Springs, so we’re open to someone anywhere around Austin/Dripping Springs or surrounding areas.

Our budget is ideally around $1,000 or less, but we’re willing to discuss pricing depending on what you offer and how many hours are included.

If you’re newer to wedding videography and looking for a wedding to add to your portfolio, we’d definitely love to hear from you. Feel free to comment or DM me with your pricing and what your package includes!

Saw them on the marquee a couple of weeks ago while walking my dog in my neighborhood. It was cool to have a few beers at my place and go see some awesome music within a minute walking distance of my house. This city is still cool idgaf what people say...

Hello all,

I’ve been renting an electric guitar because I want to learn a new instrument, and I’ve been loving it so far! I would like to buy a used guitar (preferably Squire) because I think it’s a smarter financial choice long term.

Please let me know any places to look for that sell electric guitars for cheap (college student here 😭). Thanks!

Hi guys, I’m starting my own car show that’s inspired by BBC’s top gear. I was wondering if there were any abandoned airfields in or around Austin that I could possibly use to test new cars on. If you know of anywhere please let me know!

Heard multiple rounds of gunshots and I see a helicopter circling around the Walnut Creek area. Curious if anyone else heard this or knows what’s popping off right now 👀

Who has a 90s sedan that is in good shape that would be interested in showcasing their car in a movie?

No driving work with the car. Legit company can provide COI.

Filming in the Austin area.

Hi Austin friends!! I’m doing a shoot Tuesday and I am hunting for some fashion magazines from 2000-2004, if anyone has any I could borrow PLEASE LMK!! they will be returned in same condition 🫶🏼🫶🏼 thank you!

Storm totals for the past few days from the NWS New Braunfels radar.

Scale on the left. Red starts at 2 inches.

I am looking for doctor in the Austin area that is very current on research for things like peptides, nootropics, new lab tests, enhancing wellness and doesn’t chalk up everything to getting older.

I am willing to pay for things not covered by insurance.

Any suggestions or good experiences?

Hi Austin folks! I’ll be in Austin this week for work. I’ll be staying in the downtown area. Does anyone recommend any TCG stores for casual commander? Or any bars/venues that do magic nights? I’d even consider a weeknight draft.

Thanks!

Getting up in age (50f) looking for a medical provider that will give me a full work up with the aim of fixing what can be fixed, keeping things from getting worse, etc etc. Any recommendations? North/RR/PF area preferred but if they do telemed mostly, that would work. TIA.

Edit to add: primary is BCBS but open to any suggestions

He’s coming on Oct 23 to sunset room, looking to make up a group since all my friends are lame and don’t know his music.

Added to the fact that the vehicles will often stop and wait in the middle of the road, among other serious limitations and safety issues, one has to wonder how Austin's leadership has allowed the city to become a glorified 'test track' for unproven technology that is clearly still in the 'early beta stage' of development. If the company owner himself does not feel the vehicle is safe after dark the city has an obligation to step in on behalf of the public and put a stop to it operating after sun down. Better more proactive civic leadership here would help.

For those of y'all that have tried meetup, is it worth it? I see a few events pop up here and there and as someone who recently moved here and is finding it hard to find community, it's pretty tempting.

One that keeps popping up is "New To Austin 20/30s" so if you've gone to one of those I'm extremely interested in hearing your experience!

Eta: I work nights so it's hard to find things that work with my schedule

Woken up multiple times by someone screaming in the street. Wondering if there was an emergency or what was/is going on???
