    Yeah, I am quite a bit bummed about the move to Austin.

    It’ll be interesting to see how it plays out, but they are going to need to do something big and something unique from SWAF to get me to venture down.

    I might go for the bbq and live music in Austin.
    Strange you would leave the fourth largest metro area in the nation ( soon to be third) for a much smaller and expensive market.
    You would think Houston would be a better choice as it is the fifth largest metro area in the nation.

    Dallas is the easiest to get in and out of for all

    Direct flights, and 3-4 hour drive for Texans and those in Oklahoma

    Since RMAF is gone a fall show would be nice

    Beat the heat, last weekend in September, or first weekend October

    It can still be toasty at that time. March was a good choice for SWAF.

    Yeah but usually after Sept 15th a cool front or two have rolled in and lowers temps into the 80’s and humidity drops

    It's in Austin now??? SHEEE-IT...that's a stones throw from me. Too bad about losing the convenience of Dallas though.

    @marvda1 I'll give SRV a call and let em know you're coming down so he and the boys from Double Trouble can start warming up! See you around Austin City Limits.......

    That may be a heck of a long distance call charge.
