Even without ACL Fest I still managed to shoot over 120 bands or artists performing in and around Austin. I shot lots of different venues, lots of different genres, met lots of neat people and had a huge amount of fun along the way. I want to thank everyone that helped, especially the following:

• Emily Smith and her team Direct Events (La Zona Rosa, Austin Music Hall, The Backyard)
  
• Laura Montez and her team at the Frank Erwin Center
  
• Elizabeth Derczo and the SXSW crew
  
• The gang at Antone's
  
• Everyone at Emo's
  
• The staff at The Red Eyed Fly
  
• Clint Gilders
  
• Christy Keith
  
• Therese Kopiwada
  
• Susan Barringer
  
• Moondog
  
• Jay West
  
• Ray Wylie Hubbard
  
• Paul Collins
  
• The Zico Chain
  
• Hugh Cornwell
  
• Les Claypool
  
• Kerry King and everyone in Slayer
