Andrea and I just went to Hyde Park Grill together on Friday. It was amazing and such a great time not to mention that the fries are out of this world. Basically anytime spent together in Hyde Park, Austin is a great time and I can't wait to do it again soon. Bike ride maybe? Yes, I think so.
There's also this really awesome Grocery Store there which I just learned today has this awesome mural on it. The guy on the left is supposedly painted after Will Ferrel. They filmed a movie in Austin with him in it some years ago.
And I just found this video of Mates of State performing Tom Waits' Long Way Home in Austin like a year ago. Then I remembered we went to that show so I got super stoked. I love this song and Mates of State just makes it all that much better, and I'm pretty sure I can hear Andrea and I talking in the background in the beginning haha. It looks like it was filmed on the same side we were standing anyways. So its possible...maybe.

I love this song. They need to make a covers album. And we need to go to a Mates show together again. pronto!
ReplyDeleteYes! Starbucks' valentines day album has Mates of States singing this song on it. I want to buy it so bad.
