This Week in Austin Shows

I know, I've been lazy, I've kept you hanging, not updating the site and just tweeting about my cat. Sometimes, a blogger has to just tweet about their cat and take a little break, ok? I figured today was a good day to come back because there are several shows worth your attention on the horizon. Some of them may be sold-out or difficult to attend but you can give em the ole college try.

Grizzly Bear played Stubb's Monday night but they'll be back in Austin to tape a performance for ACL TV this evening. Tickets are not available to the general public but if you're an obsessive fan you can try to stand in line outside the venue hours in advance of the show in the hopes of gaining entry.

You'll find other great show opportunities below the break.
