I always suspected that Ziggy wasn't an original, but today I happened to stumble across exactly how.
You gotta love science! Fuc-it-ol! Those damn chemists are a bunch of Arsole's! Only Godnose what else they will come up with...
This week's Austin Chronicle has a blurb (second down) about the imminent closing of Tower Records (June 13th) and Thirty Three Degrees records (May 31st), both on Guadalupe. Right now, 33 degrees has a 20% off everything sale. Tower will start a 20% off sale on Thursday and will slash prices to fire-sale levels on June 10th (apparently). It's kind of a shame especially after the recent closing of all the Jupiter Records locations. I didn't think I could feel bad about buying everything from Cheapo and Waterloo but I kind of do now. Not a good time to be an independent record retailer.
On a similar note, place your bets now about what will be moving into the Tower location once they're gone. Anybody heard anything?
Austin Theater Alliance , and specifically the Paramount theater, is running a summer movie series. The whole link was too long to put in the link box, but if you click on Series Information on the front page it will take you to a listing. From there you can click on the Complete Listings link to get little descriptions about the movies you don't know about and listings of double features. Note that you can get a book of 10 movie vouchers for $41 good for any 10 movies over the summer. $4 a movie isn't bad.
