Austin Metropolis Limits is certainly one of my absolute favourite issues. Each fall a ton of gifted musical acts collect to carry out for 3 days in Austin, Texas. It’s magical. That is one thing I’ve been attending for years. It has the entire expertise of SXSW with out the pretension and annoying individuals strolling down the center of Congress performing like they don’t know there’s a line of 100 automobiles ready for them to maneuver to allow them to proceed driving. Anyway….I actually love ACL.
I’ve completed one thing horrible although. One thing that ACL won’t ever forgive me for. I’m unsure what it was however it needed to have been actually actually unhealthy. How do I do know I did one thing actually actually unhealthy? As a result of Austin Metropolis Limits has liked making my musical life unbearably troublesome for the previous a number of years by scheduling a minimum of two of my favourite acts on the similar time. They’re clearly making an attempt to get again at me for one thing. They need to harm me. They’re succeeding.
This 12 months it’s M.I.A. and Muse on Saturday evening. Identical time. It hurts to put in writing it. I’ve liked each of those acts for years. After I noticed the line-up for this 12 months and purchased tickets I by no means thought I must select between them. How can I? I’m so sorry for no matter I did ACL. I actually am. Please, please forgive me. I’m actually down-on-my-knees begging you to reschedule. I have to see them each. I would die if I’ve to decide on. I completely will die if I’ve to decide on. I imply, no matter I did to deserve this may’t have been so unhealthy that you’d want for my dying. Proper? Proper!?
Final 12 months I had to decide on between the Kings of Leon and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. And it actually harm me. Damage me deep. I went with Kings of Leon and so they had been sensible. Past wonderful however I’ll at all times really feel a bit bit unhappy that I haven’t seen the Yeah Yeah Yeahs dwell. I imply, they most likely had an incredible set at ACL. I don’t know. I’ll by no means know. And even when I see them dwell some other place, I’ll by no means have seen them dwell at ACL. You possibly can most likely hear the violins taking part in within the background of this post- and likewise the thunder-like sound of my coronary heart breaking. You want that sort of music ACL? How about tears? You just like the sound of these? As a result of I’m planning on calling you and leaving you a lot of messages which might be comprised of nothing greater than my ugly sobbing. I’m your psycho ex-girlfriend ACL. The extra you harm me, the extra I stalk you and ship you lifeless roses and perhaps set hearth to your house- I don’t know- all of it is determined by how unhealthy you proceed to try to harm me. I can’t be held accountable for my actions. That is on you ACL. And no jury would convict me. In all probability.
I digress. What I imply to say is I’m so sorry. I’m so very, actually, deeply, sorry for no matter I did that made you need to harm me this fashion. I’ll actually do something so that you can reschedule Saturday performances, please don’t make me select between M.I.A. and Muse. Please. Fairly please. Keep in mind all the nice instances we’ve had through the years? Keep in mind how trustworthy I’ve been in attending? That has to imply one thing to you. Consider all the nice instances ACL- consider the nice instances and reschedule.
