Music Fests: Austin City Limits 2009

We are a little slower in reporting on this but in one word I'm 'GEEKED'. This lineup looks fantastic, I'd say close to spectacular...

I'd say of the 2009 fests this is THE ONE. To top things off ACL has finally wised up and shifted their fest into the cooler month of October. Anyhoo take a look. With Pearl Jam, Kings Of Leon, and The Beastie Boys on top you don't need much more. List doesn't stop there either. Dead Weather, Ghostland Observatory, Mos Def, Avett Brothers, I feel like I'm listing every band. Grizzly Bear, Dan Auerbach, Medeski, Martin, and Wood. Sneak my boys Dr. Dog in the mix and it's icing on the cake, not to mention Blitzen Trapper. That album Furr is still in heavy rotation on my stereo. Man I just have to get tix and make the trip. Id also love to see Black Joe Lewis, Alberta Cross, Airborne Toxic Event, I even get a little country with Reckless Kelly and Zac Brown Band. Full List below. What are your thoughts? What do you think the Best Fest of 2009 is?
