I don't know what happened with the speaker wire lo those many years ago. Or really anything else that happened at that ACL.

This years, I feel like I was there.

Wide angle lens.

They work better if you shoot at chest height.

So, did you see when Tom Petty got struck by lightning? Cool, huh?

Work better in what sense? To be more accurate, or to make someone look smaller?

Forunately my camera finger is quick.

What I learned at ACL:

For a pretty boy, John Mayer plays a mean guitar. And his show is good to nap to.

I should listen to more Guy Clark.

Entering a port-a-potty in the dark is a scary, scary thing. Hand sanitizing stations outside port-a-potties are most welcome.

You can tripp over hair.

Jews are a musical people. The Hasidic rapper was worth wandering 40 years through the wilderness to find a good viewing spot.

Treat yourself to a gospel brunch at Stubbs. Come for the brisket, stay for the man in the red suit and creepy long fingernails singing to you about Satan.

Don't point at the gay couple holding hands while walking down the street in front of you. They may choose that moment to turn around and wonder why a commie fag is pointing at them.

Black boxer-briefs are not see-through when wet. This will not prevent comments from aging hippie passersby.

65-degree water causes shrinkage. That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it.

Tom Petty is afraid of rain. And lightening. I've never really considered myself a Tom Petty fan, but listening to his set made me realize how many good songs he has, and how I seem to know the words to all his songs.

I am a fan of the exposed nipple look.

In short, twigs do not look good in pencil skirts.
Her phrase was discernible (discernable?) hips, not ass. Most woman things, including skinny pants imho, look OK with discernible hips. Neither pencil skirts nor skinny pants look good with discernible thighs.

He should be more careful with the speaker wire.

Meaning "if that was the rule in past years". So, not subjunctive mood, but straight-up past tense.

Yeah, that.

If TP was struck, I missed it. Was at a different stage, I guess. Or swimming/getting muddy/drunk off my ass.

I love reading the missed connections on craigslist afterwards.

Thievery Corporation, Gnarls Barkley, Cat Power, John Mayer, Aimee Mann, Guy Clark, The Raconeteurs, Iron & Wine, Willie, The New Pornographers, Son Volt, and the Flaming Lips all were awesome. I'm having difficulty deciding which I liked best.

Hmm. Perhaps. But what if we made up the speaker wire tale to throw everyone off and never revealed What Happened At ACL?
