So being that I love Ryan Bingham and Eli Young Band in two very different ways I have a little something to say. I am curious as to how you can review either show so well being that they were at the same time? I myself struggled as to which show to attend. Just my opinion, EYB's new record is refreshing and the writing and song choices are getting better as they get older. I was at ACL.

Ummm, what in the hell is "the groove fields"? I love "Contrary and Western" and so do the Grand Ole Opry audiences when Sunny has performed it live from the Opry Stage. Whomever wrote this foolishness obviously doesn't like music that's "too country". Hey, I saw Slaid Cleaves perform live last night in Santa Monica, so a little bit of the Austin music scene actually came my way on the ACL Festival weekend. I'd much rather see Sunny perform though....
