    Uh yeah, you definitely want to go casual here. You would look pretty silly in a blazer and tie on 6th street

    What can you do in Austin besides drink and chase coeds in a creepy fashion? Wait: Double Dave's Pizza Buffet.

    That's all I got.

    You forgot shooting people in the head with a high-power rifle from the bell tower.

    And as long as we have some advance notice, I'm pretty sure Darth, Tak and I can all caravan. Shit, if we don't have a place to stay, we can just drive home. It's like 2.5 hours away.

    It's around 3 hours, but the time can vary quite a bit depending on when you make the drive...like if you try to go from austin to dallas on a friday afternoon you are pretty much fucked because of traffic

    2.5-3.5, depending on traffic on 35.

    So I guess the question is: Do you have any of the following?
    _ Lice
    _ Leprosy
    _ AIDS
    _ Ebola

    -no

    -no

    Although the idea of riding all the way down there on my bike would be cool. But then again a forum carpool sounds more cool.

    It probably would be. I'd suggest a late start, especially if we're heading down for a weekend. Friday Night traffic to Austin is always lighter after 11 pm.

    It might be cool to see a show or something in Austin, but I doubt we could think of a group that most would give a shit about. I'm thinking random wandering of 6th street is our best bet for some shenanigans.

    Texas barbecue is it's own species; we use beef because it's so abundant, however, there are exceptions to the rule, like pork ribs.

    Brisket, though, oh man.

    most of 6th street is bars and stuff, and they don't let underaged in on most nights

    Goddammit, Austin has sure changed since Jenna Bush. Why I remember when you couldn't get carded unless you were puking your guts out on the hood of a patrol car while you were pissing on the tires.

    Yeah, it's still like that, I dunno what Chief is talking about.

    You can get into lots of places on 6th street if you're under 21, you just have to endure the shame of having a big fucking X on your hand.

    We should all go to the dueling piano bar, at least. that place is fun.

    6th street is a pretty badass place to hang out even if you don't really go in anywhere. It doesn't sound like there's that many people interested who are under 21 anyway so I guess it doesn't really matter

    I'm 20, with 10 months to go. So close...

    Anyway, I'm concerned about how late the night would run. The day after will be a school day- though my classes don't start until 9:00.

    Also, should we start posting pictures and stuff? We're going to need to be able to recognize each other. I already know what Khoo looks like, I think. From the comics.

    I would go. But since I'm under 21, tough shit!

    I've been thinking of going to ACL this year if it's got some good people up there. If anybody else is interested, we should get something going for that time of the year.

    And if I ever get my ass on making reservations, I'll be down in Port A sometime around the 12 - 18th. I think the last four days?

    I was under the impression that there would be eating at a restaurant involved. You don't need to be over 21 for that.

    Or I hope you don't, because damn that would suck for me.

    I mean, if you wanted to, you could come on down to San Antonio/Helotes area and I could give you a pretty quick tour of what a typical weekend looks like.

    It involves a lot f blurs and potentially some headaches.

    I keep thinking you're over 21. Man, ACL kicked my fucking ass the one year I went. Of course, I was also dealing with horrible whore girlfriend issues, but still, it was very hot. I might be up for it depending on the line up. Hmmm...

    Unfortunately, it's the 6th. And that means I've got school. Given any chance of making it up to Austin for dinner after school is out is a no go, because Austin is a parking lot at 5 - 7. San Antonio is becoming the same way.

    The place we're going to with Khoo isn't a problem because it's just a restaurant, but for texPAX the age issue is probably something worth keeping in mind. There's plenty of stuff to do here though, I don't think finding something will be a problem

    Yeah, middle of the week isn't such a great time for anyone that doesn't already live in Austin. I thought about going but it's right after I start working again.
