Just one more reason...

Last night was tough to choose... It was one of those, "Wish I could be in 3 places at once kinda night!"  Spoon was at the Scoot Inn.  The Faint at Stubb's.  My Bloody Valentine at the Austin Music Hall.  All this on a Tuesday night!?  Not a bad selection of road shows huh?

But... Locally we had to Keep Austin Weird!  Antones had the Corporate Battle of the Bands - where people with real daytime jobs get to release their inner "Rock Star!"

A cool way for big companies here in town to let their employees rock out all while helping the Health Alliance for Austin Musicians!!  Everyone is a winner!  

But... I guess Cirrus Logic's "Logic 55" was the overall big winner of the night and "The Deuce" (another band made up of Cirrus employees) was crowd favorite... What is in the water over there?  "My So-Called Band" from George and Brothers LLP took best cover band and "Famous Characters" from GSD&M was best original band!!  Congrats to all of you and thank you for helping the Austin musicians...

You Rock!!  It's just one of the many reasons why this town is so cool!
