Is there anything interesting (festivals) that ever happens in texas? I've been looking, but have been unsuccessful. I'm bored all the time. If anyone has any info on something cool in my neck of the woods please let me know.

For real, do it~you'll be happy you did . mmm... nothing like good lookin' super-talented hippy boys playing good ol' time music

Every April there is a thing called the Arts and Jazz Fest in Denton, Tx. It is very cool and one of the few things I look forward to. They have live music and craft booths. People come from all over the country to sell their crafts and the bands are super amazing. Anyway, that's pretty much all I know of in Tx besides whatever they do down in Austin...

 

ill check everything out, im gonna be going to school in denton too, this'll be cool. by the way plainjane i checked out your site. i like your work. do you make every thing yourself or do you have people helping you. i make clothes and stuff too, as soon as i can learn the computer a little better i plan to have a web store. just thought i'd throw that out there

Hi maybe this will help this came in the mail from our local chamber of commerce... try looking up... www.visitbellcounty.com

They have listed several festivals in central texas and magazine I like looking at is called Texas Montly and Texas Highways.... The url address for the highway magazine is www.texashighways.com Hope those help...

 

im getting ready to move to austin tx. my husbands father is a photographer for texashighways... im looking forward to all the festys!

 

Renessiance Festival rocks, Kerrville rocks even more. ACL is today and looks to be awesome. In... march or april they have a jam/folk festival out in nachodoches called the 10 Acre Jam. Eeyores birthday is in april every year and in Austin we have a big festival to celebrate with crafts/games and a HUGE drum circle.

 

great list of events! i go to st.edward's in austin & every thursday we do a little drum circle jam thing for a few hours. it makes me miss the drum circle at eeyore's birthday! thats definitely the best, man. i went to kerrville for the little folk festival for the first time a couple of weeks ago. i cant wait for the big one!

 

There is also a drum circle on the third sunday of every month at I believe... 7 o'clock in Zilker Park.

 

Not exactly a hippy fest, but the Texas Rennaisance Festival is pretty damn cool, and the camping rocks, and there's always lots of cool interesting people.
And just for kicks you can watch the webcams at trfcam it should be starting next weekend i believe.

 

are they anything like Outhouse Moan?

 

string cheese in playing this friday, sat., & sun. (10/15-10/17) at the backyard in austin. i'm pretty stoked for that

 

hey, I was at the NY Harvestfest this week, and a whole bunch of travellers seem to he headed to texas for the cheese...and stuff

 

man cheese this weekend...it was such a beautiful experience. i'd seen them twice before, but only at the 1st & 2nd acl festivals, and that crowd is so mixed and weird...but the mindset of the people at the show was amazing. so positive and respectful. did anyone else make it down to austin this weekend?

 

Some good bands from around these parts you might want to check out: bagg, Peach Truck Republic, Spoonfed Tribe, anything with Earl Harvin, Mike Dillon, or Paul Slavins playing, Shaolin Death Squad, Norte de Havana, The Collection Agency,.... There's more good musicians in this town than there are place to see them. We used to have an awesome party called the Fry Street Fair every spring, but that's been up in the air the last couple of years.
