But that last picture shows there's plenty of open space still with 75,000 people and that's why I think they decided to do 2 weekends instead of increasing the capacity to 100,000 each day.

There's also no way ACL is moving for reasons that have already been mentioned above. It also wouldn't be able to go to COTA in any event. They are busy preparing for the U.S. Grand Prix which is the weekend after this. They will not have a major music festival the weekends right before a race like that and despite the race date moving up a little each week I don't see it moving to the first half of the year and ACL won't be moving to any other month. October is it.

I swear I want to tell all those NIMBYS who complain each year to get over it. They live in a major city that has several events. This is something, like SXSW, that only happens once a year. Sure it's 2 weekends in a row but it's not like it's going on during the week in between. If they don't like crowds or events then maybe they should consider living in a small town or out in the middle of nowhere. IMO if you live in any city you should expect major events and crowds occasionally, that's just life in a big city. You have to expect your usual routine will be disrupted from time to time and plan accordingly.


Well I haven't been on a rant like that in awhile lol. But back to the pictures. I like them all!
