Wouldn't it be nice...

          As summer gets nearer and nearer, I can't help but look at my Facebook page and see all sorts of status messages about the SXSW (South by Southwest) Music Festival in Austin and pre-order notices for Warped Tour and so on.
        It gets me thinking, "I wish I had the money (and time) to go to Austin and hang out with fellow music lovers," but for now, it's out of reach. Then a thought came to me. It would be pretty cool to have a music festival of our own, actually. All the UT Tyler talent showcased to play whatever they felt like in front of people who just want to listen to music.
        People would have to be committed to the idea, though. It would be a downer to put together a music showcase and have two people play or a handful of folks show up. Maybe one day we'll have a dozen or so brave souls decide to display their musical talents and form up a festival.


Until then, I guess it's saving up for a weekend in Austin.
