Drove 5 hours to Austin, stood outside in the cold for 5 hours more to see this.

 

Some old man came by while I was waiting to get in......

Man: What are you waiting for?

Me: Coldplay are broadcasting a simulcast of their show here tonight.

Man: Who are Coldplay?

Me: A band from England.

Man: I see. Do you go to school here? (UT)

Me: No sir, I drove in from the Beaumont area.

Man: Beaumont, that's like 4 or 5 hours away!

Me: Yes sir.

Man: when does it start?

Me: 7pm (it's only 3pm)

Man: And this simulcast thing, it's what exactly?

Me: the band are playing for the taping of ACL and they will be simulcasting sound and video to the auditorium so more people can see it.

Man: So you drove all day and are standing out in the freezing cold just to see a movie of this band?

Me: Well whan you put it like that it sounds kinda crazy. :dozey:

 

:laugh3::laugh3:
