ACL Aftershows Announced; Tix on Pre-Sale

By Austin Sound • Aug 18th, 2009 • Category: News •

Because seeing Sound Tribe Sector 9 at the ACL Fest just isn’t intimate enough for you, there will thankfully be an cozy aftershow performance at Stubb’s. We really admire those who feel the need to double up on their experience by catching a band like STS9 or Thievery Corporation in Zilker Park, and then again at Stubb’s. Oh, and Ghostland Observatory has the Sunday night big aftershow slot. Gonna be gettin’ dancy down on Waller Creek. All that being what it is, there are still some actually great aftershows on the official list this, especially if you don’t want to pay a hundred some bucks to get sunstroke and dust poisoning. Emo’s looks like it’s especially receiving the love this year, with shows from Grizzly Bear, !!!, Deer Tick, the Felice Brothers, and more. Also Bon Iver will be playing the Paramount, which we honestly can’t imagine him coming close to selling out, but what do we know - STS9 is playing freakin’ Stubb’s. Full list below, and the tix on pre-sale at the not so secret site.
