  2. Around the Festivals - people & crowds

ACL Music Festival 2009

"One of the coolest moments of ACL Fest is the first, when the gates are opened at 11 a.m. and the crowd runs for prime viewing spots as the loudspeakers play the theme from “Star Wars.” This year the throngs were sprinting on grass that was as velvetty as the fairways at Fazio Canyons. The difference from last year was noticable." excerpt from report by Michael Corcoran http://www.austin360.com/blogs/content/shared-gen/blogs/austin/music/entries/2009/10/02/acl_scene_report_star_wars_and.html (Photographer's comment - "The difference between Friday and the subsequent two days was dramatic". See other day's crowd shots.)
