It'll be great to go back to Austin and the lineup still looks great.
I did look into it and you can't take your car off the grounds, which is a bummer and why we added a couple of days. Need to spend some time in the actual city.

jeepers i can fly wed-mon for $172 on american right now for that.
gotta wait for certain prospects over the next few weeks, but even with a rental car that's v doable.

If you end up wanting to/being able to do that, we could probably throw your camping stuff in the car and work things out when you get down there. Obvz that can be a discussion for later, but we'd be willing to work it out.

If the Day for Night lineup doesn't get me back, I may end up going to SOS. We'll see.

I really want to camp at SoS but it's outrageously expensive for camping. $75 per person. Obviously I can afford that and it's not more than a hotel would cost, but at the end of the day it is $75 to sleep on the ground, pretty ridiculous.

If you're going for 3 days and camping, it's pretty reasonable. Also if you think of the $75 as going toward reserving the camping spot as well, it makes a decent amount of sense.

Closest hotel that I know of, which is in Elgin, bumped their prices up to like $150 a night for that weekend. Ugh.
I'm pretty in on Friday and Saturday of that fest. Sunday is iffy for me, it really depends how late they put Electric Wizard on. I can't take any off for work so I'd need to be back in Houston at a decent hour that night

There are hotels within 20 minutes driving for under $100 a night though. It's annoying you have to pay to park each day too.
This ren fair must really charge them a lot for the site.

i went to hinterland on saturday. nice little festival on a hill.
nikki lane turned in about the same set as when she played square roots last month. shakey graves sounded pretty good for the first time i heard his music. dwight yoakam was pretty great as usual, though even for a one-hour festival set he played a lot of covers. and not the one i wanted to hear. gary clark jr isn't really my thing, but the crowd loved him and he was fine background music. ryan adams was very good. his voice recovered nicely from thursday night. setlist was a little different, but he still played that meandering "magnolia mountain"/"cold roses" jam. pretty late in the set, his drummer broke his 2nd snare of the night. so ryan improvised a song that i actually really liked while the drum situation got fixed. just like thursday, he ran about a half-hour over curfew. then he ended with "halloweenhead." we had a good time.

Had a great time at OSL even with the Tribe postponement. Fest grounds were really cool, weather was good. Was really easy to get around. Never waited more than 5 minutes for anything, including getting in. Was surprised how many folks were in costumes/dressed weirdly: furries and wannabes, lots of bathrobes, crazy hats, lots of totems.
Listened to some good music - Hamilton Leithauser, Noname, Belle & Sebastian, Future Islands. Gorillaz started off shaky when I realized Vince wasn't there. But, we got Pusha, De La Soul, and Del the FH, and others. They played all the hits (Dirty Harry, Clint Eastwood and Feel Good, Inc) and 19-2000 twice when Damon screwed it up the first time. Lots of fun. So much so, that we decided to sell our wristbands to 2 folks who were pissed that they didn't get to see Tribe. We decided to leave on a high note, so to speak. Not gonna see Tribe, but that's ok. Especially since Tribe is going to be at the Twin Peaks stage, which could potentially be a shit show.
Final thoughts - security was really lax. We had a backpack with a few pockets and security hardly looked at it. Also, did not pat down Mrs ten15 at all. Also, also, the crowds did not seem as into the music as Chicago crowds.. The exception was .Gorillaz. We were close but off to the side, and the crowd was good.
Overall, I recommend OSL. Would do again.

Glad you had a good time and I've also heard that about the crowds at OSL.

We are deeply disappointed that we have just been informed A Tribe Called Quest will not make their scheduled performance at Outside Lands. Claude VonStroke will perform at Twin Peaks from 7 - 8:05pm.
I'd be so disappointed.

I'd be so disappointed. I'm so glad I didn't go today. Not sure what the real problem is but "further travel complications" is bullshit. Wow.
