    My Attendance is mandatory...just spoke to coffinjoe about it yesterday so I'll definitely be there. I'm down with buying a beer for any cool SS'ers there.



    As long as it's not Molson I will gladly let you buy me a beer. Strutters from outside of Texas please to be sure to experience the glory that is "LONESTAR BEER!"

    I'm not talking about Molson or Lonestar...I'm talking this micro brew joint in Downtown Austin which has an extremely appealing variety of the finest hops induced beverages.....let's deal with that.

    No, RHs drink Pearl. (Well at least used to until it was bought by Miller).

    touche, although i was making a reference to the slogan, not the taste. i'd say they're pretty comparable though.

    you talking about Waterloo Ice House?
    I'm down for some brews, Shiner is about as refined as I get though.

    one of my best austin customers was the manager of that joint
    back when it was sxsw & the arc show, he would comp me a meal there
    not being a big drinker anymore, i asked for advice in ordering
    he sent over some super sampler of atleast dozen beers & ales
    killer stuff & i was drank

    i thought you texas midlanders raved about that shiners bock swill (just kidding)
    lonestar was more of a lubbock move
    whats up with that

    Shiner Bock was great until about '91 when they were bought out by Corona (I think it was) who changed up the recipe in a bad way.

    Hey Ross, remember how the 21st Street Coop always seemed to get the best-tasting Shiner Bock kegs anywhere for their Bouffant Jellyfish/Retarded Elf parties?

    why do I have the feeling this Austin show is gonna be more about beer than records?

    fyi - i scored $30 a nite extended stay style suite on priceline
    location, off I-35 + across 290 from the old crockett center (rrggghh)
    but not too far from the new local
    total with tax & service charge = $111
    not too bad for 3 nites

  • meatyogremeatyogre 2,080 Posts
    cheapest I could get was 54$ a night for 4 nights at the Rodeway Inn. See yall there.

  • y'all might wanna check hotels at 35&Parmer too but the area coffin mentioned is probably cheaper, as 35&Parmer catches a lot of business travelers. also 35&290 is not far at all from downtown.

    The Guise of a Saleman by Sprawl was my ish.

    I think I did a post on this album a long time ago, but who's up on this cassettecdonlyraer?





    My favorite track on there, which I'd love to someday give a proper vinyl release:

    Fleshmop - Feeble Minds

    Another one that is pretty rare is the Axiom Album compilation LP. Sprawl was on that one too. I believe it was the first record on the Rastaman Work Ethic label.

    coffinjoe, please say hi to my local dealers from Stuttgart (big, mean looking, sweaty guys). ever since you have been talking to them about me, they think I'm a big dude (wrong grammar?). Finally, they are offering me some records from "behind the counter"! Thanks to you! haha!

    Say "hi" to them, please! Hope to meet you in Utrecht this year!
