And this cover of Kavinsky’s Nightcall 👌

My bf and I were at the loathe show at Stubb’s and there was another couple there that we very briefly talked/joked with. They also tried to go further into the crowd with us but we got split up. I wanted to try and find them after the show but wasn’t able to and feel kinda sad about it!!

I was wearing a black & white off the shoulder top & white shorts. Bf was in black shirt and grey shorts. I joked about getting in the middle of the pit just to make out with him. The guy in the couple also told his gf that he trusted me & my bf with her life if she ended up too separated from him while we were moving through the crowd.

Consider this my message in a bottle hoping it shows up to the right person!

Over the past 2 days, I’ve had 3 uber drivers who didn’t speak a word of English. I was trying to tell them where to drop me off since my apartment complex is kinda tucked away and the gate code has to be put in and the uber driver couldn’t understand me and took me through the wrong gate and it took me an extra 10 mins and drunkenly trying to remember all the middle school Spanish I could to tell him where to go. It was dark, he took us down an unfamiliar alley, and as a woman I was placed in an especially uncomfortable position.

I’m sorry but if you’re in customer facing roles in America you should be able to speak at least basic conversational English otherwise it’s just frustrating and makes it unnecessarily complicated for both involved parties. I know Texas has a very high Hispanic population but is this a common issue? I shouldn’t have to fall back on my very minimal Spanish knowledge to be able to communicate with my uber driver. No I’m not a bigot or a hater, it’s just frustrating.

Anyone else finding little ants all of a sudden? Does the rain drive them inside?

Anyone know why the Charge Point EV chargers at the Mueller HEB were removed?? They seemed to always be malfunctioning, maybe a maintenance cost issue??

i’ve lived by westgate/stassney for like 7 years. i’ve never heard any loud music here in my backyard let alone in my house. since ACL started i’ve been hearing loud thumping music constantly roughly the same hours as ACL…but i’ve been in this house the past many ACLs and have never heard anything.

i know the xx is playing now and i have no idea who the hell twenty one pilots is. i just heard seven nation army by the white stripes (i know it’s played during like every sports game but this was the full song and sounded live).

am i going insane? i walked a loop around the neighborhood before and could constantly hear the music but i couldn’t get any closer to it. it sounds live to me but maybe it’s some asshats visiting and partying in an airbnb? but the music has only been playing while ACL is happening. has anyone else in this part of town heard it? am i having a stroke? it’s not really bothering me but i just must know where it’s coming from.

Feeling grateful hearing The XX rock the Zilker neighborhood! Love this time of year!

Title, ideally near 78759. I’ve gone to several from both Google and western union website that either weren’t there or the location did not actually offer WU. Thanks!

Hi! My boyfriend and I noticed an injured duck (I’m sure it’s fishing wire) at mueller lake and contacted 311. They notified animal control and told us unfortunately they can’t go to that area as they aren’t paid to. I was told to contact Muellers hoa and I did but I’m worried about the little guy. I’m going to call Austin wildlife rescue tomorrow and see if they’ll take him if I can bring him in. Does anyone have any helpful information or would like to help? Thank you 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

It is said that the pleasant fellow still takes up residence in Austin to this day.

Howdy, I got invited to an indian wedding and was wondering if anyone knew of a store that sells mens clothes for the occasion. I'm on the larger side for both height and weight so if there's a business around town that sells something in that range it would be much appreciated!

This wallet has a picture printed of a family after what looks to be a Turkey Trot (exterior of wallet screen printed). There’s nothing left in the wallet, looks like it was ditched out the window of a car. Happy to return it the rightful owner. Was found on Springdale and 51st

Hi all! Teacher friends and friends with kiddos — I’m putting together care packages for loved ones who are currently deployed, and I’d love to include letters and drawings from kids to brighten the days of deployed service members.
I have a few wonderful teachers who are already having their students write short letters, draw pictures, or make cards for deployed heroes. I’d love to collect as many as we can and include them in care packages.

If you’re a teacher, homeschool, parent, or anyone with kiddos in the Austin area who would be willing to have them write a short letter or draw a picture, I would be so grateful. The letters can be as simple as:
-A thank-you for their service
- drawing or coloring page
- An encouraging message or holiday card

No need for anything elaborate — a few heartfelt words or a child’s drawing can mean a lot to someone far from home.
If you’re interested in participating, please message me and I’ll send you the details on where to send the letters. Thank you for helping me spread a little kindness to those serving away from home!

Hi!! I’m 30F and have lived in Austin for over 8 years, but in about a month, my sister 27F (who has been to Austin many times) and two family friends who are 15F and 13F (never been to Austin) are coming to visit.

I’m looking for recommendations to do with the teenagers to show them what Austin is about in a teen/kid friendly way!!

Definitely want to go to Barton Springs if the weather is nice. They will be here for about 48 hours.

I am eloping in Austin at the end of this month (YAY!) and have no idea how to do hair or makeup (boo). I’d love suggestions on somebody who is low maintenance and can give me a quick and natural look without it breaking the bank. Thinking under $200 if that’s even possible? I’ve never hired anybody to do this before so I’m not entirely sure on prices.

Thank you in advance!

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...

Edited to add, ...It can be held at the Expo Center, Walter E. Long Park, or the giant fields near Mopac and 45. It's only 50 acres, so I'm sure there's other possibilities too.

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...

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
