Alright Guys Line Up is out. Discuss/get it going!
The long-awaited lineup for the 10th annual Austin City Limits Music Festival is out and the scramble for one-day passes ensued.
At midnight on Tuesday, festival organizers released the lineup. It includes headliners such as Kanye West, Stevie Wonder, Arcade Fire, and Fleet Fox.
The performers will join more than 100 other acts on the ACL stages at Zilker Park. This year's festival kicks off on Friday, September 16 and runs through Sunday, September 18.
Three day passes for the festival sold out before the lineup was even released. On Tuesday at 10:00 a.m. organizers started selling one day passes. At $90 a piece they are selling fast.
Austin Powell is the music columnist at the Austin Chronicle. He was among the hundreds waiting online for the sale to start.
Powell set up two separate computers and four different kinds of web browsers to get through as quickly as possible. About one minute to sell time, the online ticket office moved Powell into a digital waiting room.
Six minutes in, one of the browsers went through. Powell secured two tickets for each day of the festival.
"It's their 10th anniversary for ACL, and I really get the impression that they really wanted to make a statement with that," said Powell. "They just went far and above and beyond with their headliners, with their middle tier, some of their kind of left-field choices as well. These are some huge acts."
According to the Austin City Limits Music Festival, the lineup will include dozens of performances each day.
