Austin Music Fans, here's something that may of slipped under your radar, and it's coming up soon. In close by San Marcos, The World United Music Festival and Radio Conference is being held November 14, 15, and 16th of this year! For whatever reason, I had not heard of this massive music fest until a few weeks ago.
I believe this is the first year of the festival, and it is set up similar to Austin City Limits. 150 bands, 8 stages, and 3 days. But the fest has two major differences to ACL. First, it is held in November, which means no dust and certainly no heat. And secondly, it only costs $70 for a weekend pass and if you only want to check the fest out for one day then it is mere $35 for a day pass!
The festival doesn't have big names like Beck, Foo Fighters, or Gnarls Barkley. It is centered around independent groups and should be a good event to attend if you are looking for some new interesting music.
