Day 8 – On to Austin we went with full stomachs thanks to Lisa and Mike and their veggie bacon. We picked up the required “don’t mess with texas” stickers and decided to stop in Dallas. We did the JFK thing and walked around sweating in the 100+ heat looking over at site of the assassination. Personally, I really don’t get it, but Jim and Dave were having a ball with it. The museum was cool though. On to Austin and a stay at Sam’s house. We arrived and hung out with Sam for a while (who has grown a moustache of shame) and then we walked down to the local bar/club for some food. The place has bands play regularly, so Sam asked if we could jump on the bill and the booking guy actually said yes. So we ended up playing Austin. The show kind of sucked, but who cares, we played Austin and we got free food.
