Austin Music Hall and Backyard Sued

By Austin Sound • Jun 22nd, 2010 • Category: News

Ah, look - Austin Music Hall and the new Backyard are just like the rest of us! Can’t pay their debts. According to the Statesman yesterday, Sixth River Architects is suing Direct Events, Tim O’Connor and Doug Moyes for not paying up $57,500 they still owe on the venues. We haven’t yet trekked out to the new Backyard, but we figured if anyone should be sued over the Austin Music Hall, it would be the folks responsible for the sound being so damned crappy in there! ZING! Good thing Willie Nelson has his 4th of July Picnic scheduled for the Backyard in a couple of weeks - maybe that will raise some money. This year’s lineup includes Kris Kristofferson, David Allen Coe, Billy Joe Shaver, Los Lonely Boys, and of course Willie. And a bunch more folks.
