Welcome to 'NITES
'NITES was an Austin-based blog that covered the local music scene in Central Texas. I started this blog because I love live music and I think Austin is the best city in the world to discover talented new bands. I ran this blog with passion and enthusiasm for a few years, before growing apart from the scene I'd once lived and breathed. This blog spent a year in limbo before I made the final decision to shutter it. The blog's previous posts will remain live, but there will be no future updates. Thanks for your years of readership and feedback. It was fun while it lasted, but times change. People change. Scenes change. Change isn't something to fear, but rather something to embrace. Peace, love and rock 'n' roll, y'all. Feel free to dig through the archives for photos, videos and writeups about Austin music from 2008 to 2010. If you use my work anywhere, please give me credit. Thanks!

Tonight: Ditch The Fest at Cheer Up Charlie's
Want a free crash course in the Red River music scene? Then let me suggest Lucy The Poodle's Ditch The Fest, a no-cover all-day party going on at Cheer Up Charlie's on the east side. Aside from the headliners (Free Moral Agents, 2Mex), this epic bill is entirely composed of local bands you'd see playing at Red River venues on any given week night.
The lineup:
