Way back in the early part of 2012, when I had only lived in San Antonio, Texas for a few months, I often went to shows at Club Rio (now out of business, but just to the left of Bowlero on 281 when it existed) to see DJs like Robbie Rivera and Morgan Page. Whenever I went back out to my car to drive back home, I'd always find flyers in the windshield for upcoming events. Usually it was local shows these flyers were advertising, but some were from big out-of-state festivals like UME in Miami and something called Electric Forest tucked away in Rothbury, Michigan. Great lineup, I thought, but I don't think I could work a trip that far into my budget this year. That was, again, 2012; after six years my situation was a little more flexible.

Austin City Limits, more commonly known as ACL, is an annual music festival that I've got more history with than any other. During the seven years I lived in San Antonio I made it to ACL no less than five times, 2013, '15, '16, '17, and '18, over which I slowly witnessed the festival evolve, watching the grounds expand, and seeing so many artists of different genres and at different stages of their careers.

2017 and 2018 were the last instances of Austin City Limits I experienced before my big move from nearby San Antonio to Stuttgart, Germany. Unlike the last three, I went to these by myself without any "fam" or "base camp."

My four-day New York City expedition was half done. By this time, I'd really started to feel at home in this city. Wake up, walk down some narrow flights of stairs into a narrow Manhattan street, and from there to a subway station and onto a train like it was second nature.
