			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Taylor Swift Concert Tickets in Austin TX</strong></p>
<p>Click here to see all of the best <a rel="nofollow" onclick="javascript:_gaq.push(['_trackPageview', '/outgoing/article_exit_link']);" href="http://www.ticketzinger.com/events/concerts/concert-tour-schedule.aspx?schedule_id=41&amp;src">Taylor Swift concert tickets Austin TX</a> in one place.</p>
<p>Country darling Taylor Swift will be returning to the United States for an additional leg of her sold-out &#8220;Fearless&#8221; tour. She will be stopping in Austin on March 10, 2010 to perform at the University of Texas&#8217;s Frank Erwin Center. Tickets went on sale for the Austin show and 14 other shows on October 23, and were sold out within minutes. The 19-year old Taylor will be joined by her good friend Kellie Pickler and new artist Gloriana will open all of the shows on the tour.</p>
<p>Taylor&#8217;s second album, titled &#8220;Fearless&#8221;, was the highest debut in country music for 2008, with several chart-topping releases, including &#8220;White Horse&#8221; and &#8220;Love Story&#8221; and showed the music world that she was a crossover talent. She also was recognized by the Academy for Country Music for her ability to attract younger fans to the genre. Taylor was also nominated for country music&#8217;s Entertainer of the Year, becoming the youngest country artist to achieve that. Her two albums have sold almost 600,000 unites combined in digital downloads, which meant that her albums are the top two bestselling country albums in digital sales.</p>
<p>At the MTV Video Awards, Taylor found herself at the center of the viral media universe when she won Best Female Video for &#8220;You Belong to Me&#8221;. Kanye West, reportedly inebriated, leaped onstage, took the microphone from Swift and shocked everyone by saying that Beyonce&#8217;s video for &#8220;Single Ladies&#8221; was one of the best videos of all time. The incident backfired on West, who was lambasted in in the press, and after Taylor appeared on The View, Kanye called Taylor to apologize.</p>
<p>Taylor Swift has also been recognized for her philanthropic efforts, even as a teenager. She launched a campaign in 2007 to protect children from internet predators. She has also generously given to St. Jude&#8217;s Children&#8217;s Research Hospital and the Red Cross. She famously made a 0,000 donation to the Red Cross after the Iowa flooding of 2008</p>
<p>The Frank Erwin Center in Austin was originally constructed in 1977 for the University of Texas at Austin, and in 2003, the Center completed  million in renovations. The renovations included safety upgrades, improvements to the Lone Star reception hall, concession stands and new scoreboards.</p>
<p>Those who are attending the concert and are traveling from outside of Austin should note that there are several hotels near the Frank Erwin Center, including a La Quinta Inn, Sheraton and Super 8; To drive to the arena, do the following: (From the Austin Bergstrom International Airport) 1. After exiting airport, turn left onto TX-71/E. Bastrop Hwy. 2. Turn right onto I-35. 3. Exit 15th Street/MLK Blvd. 4. Turn left onto 15th St. 6. Turn right on to Red River St.</p>
<p>Taylor Swift will make her acting debut next year in the Garry Marshall-directed film, &#8220;Valentine&#8217;s Day&#8221; as part of an ensemble cast. She had previously appeared in the &#8220;Hannah Montana&#8221; movie and &#8220;The Jonas Brothers: The 3D Concert Experience&#8221; in 2009.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Stubbs Restaurant Event Tickets &#8211; Austin Lives Up To Its Name As The Live Music Capital Of The World This May!</strong></p>
<p>Austin, Texas doesn&#8217;t take its title as the Live Music Capital of the World lightly! Austin is home to over 200 live music venues, and you&#8217;d better bet that they are always bubbling over with eclectic live performances and packed crowds. This May in particular sees a batch of internationally touring artists stopping in Austin on their respective road trips.</p>
<p>Stubb&#8217;s Restaurant is one of Austin, Texas&#8217; most beloved live music venues, and chanteuse Norah Jones will be performing a pair of dates at Stubb&#8217;s on May 1 and 2, joining a laundry list of eclectic acts that have stopped there over the years. Jones is in the midst of a 36-city tour in support of her latest album, The Fall, her fourth studio set. Jones launched her tour in Tulsa, Okla. on March 5 and will stop in cities scattered throughout the States and Canada this spring and summer. Fans with <a rel="nofollow" onclick="javascript:_gaq.push(['_trackPageview', '/outgoing/article_exit_link']);" href="http://www.stubhub.com/stubbs-restaraunt-event-tickets/" title="Stubbs Restaurant event tickets">Stubbs Restaurant event tickets</a> from <a rel="nofollow" onclick="javascript:_gaq.push(['_trackPageview', '/outgoing/article_exit_link']);" href="http://www.stubhub.com/">StubHub.com</a> can hear Jones perform songs like her hit single &#8220;Chasing Pirates&#8221; off The Fall when she stops in Austin.</p>
<p>After Norah Jones continues on from Austin on tour, Stubb&#8217;s Restaurant will host Blue October on May 8. Hailing from Houston, where the eclectic rock band formed in 1996, Blue October is currently on the road in support of their fifth studio album Approaching Normal, and fans will be flocking to the see the band perform in their home state. Blue October worked with Grammy-winning producer Steve Lillywhite (known for his work with U2) for their latest album, which is the follow-up to the band&#8217;s platinum-selling 2006 album Foiled, Blue October&#8217;s breakthrough album. Dubbed the Pick Up the Phone Tour, Blue October&#8217;s trek seeks to raise awareness of mental-health issues and benefit suicide-prevention services, according to Live Daily.</p>
<p>The University of Texas at Austin sits just north of downtown Austin, and in addition to Longhorns fans, the campus is packed with entertainment venues. The Frank Erwin Events Center at UT is one such venue, and one of country music&#8217;s leading ladies, Carrie Underwood, will stop there while on tour on May 8. Underwood kicked off her tour in support of her third album Play On in Reading, Pa. on March 11 and will remain on the road-with opening acts Craig Morgan and Sons of Sylvia in tow-until June 20, when she wraps things up in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. The American Idol winner is nominated for the coveted Entertainer of the Year honor at the upcoming 45th annual Academy of Country Awards, to be held on April 18, and is also planning her wedding to hockey star Mike Fisher. It&#8217;s a wonder she can find time to tour, but fans are happy she has!</p>
<p>The drive from Austin to San Antonio, the most-visited city in the Lone Star State, is definitely worth it! Aside from historical gems like the Alamo and La Villita, one of the first Spanish settlements, San Antonio is famous for the San Antonio River Walk. The River Walk snakes its way through central San Antonio along the San Antonio River and is lined with galleries, restaurants and shops. Built in 1929, San Antonio&#8217;s Majestic Theatre has remained a top venue and pillar in the South Texas city ever since. The Majestic will host Celtic Woman for two shows on May 2. San Antonio is known for its cultural diversity, and this tradition is continued when the Irish quintet comes into town. The female-powered phenomenon is on tour in support of Celtic Woman, Songs from the Heart, and fans of the talented lasses will be turning up to see them perform in San Antonio.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Keeping Austin Weird: What to Expect From Texas&#8217; Capital City</strong></p>
<p>Despite being the capital city of Texas, Austin is a city that prides itself on being far from ordinary.  Known as the &#8216;Live Music Capital of the World&#8217;, Austin offers visitors a vacation that is as diverse as it is exciting.  After all, as a city with the motto &#8216;Keep Austin Weird&#8217;, a visit to Austin is sure to be a vacation with a difference.</p>
<p>&#xD;</p>
<p>As you might expect from a city referred to as the &#8216;Live Music Capital of the World&#8217;, Austin has a vibrant live music scene with more music venues per capita than any other U.S city. Austin&#8217;s music revolves around the numerous entertainment venues that can be found on its historic 6th Street.  Originally known as Pecan Street, East-6th Street is the heart of the Austin entertainment district and plays host to a multitude of bars, clubs and music venues.  Located along the length of East-6th Street between Congress Avenue and Interstate 35, you&#8217;ll find many venues offering live music at one time or another during the week.</p>
<p>&#xD;</p>
<p>Austin is also the venue for an annual film, music and multimedia festival known as South by Southwest, which takes place every spring.  Centred around the downtown Austin Convention Centre, each part of the South by Southwest festival is relatively independent of one another with different start and end dates.  The musical branch of the festival is one of the largest music festivals in the United States with more than 1,400 performers playing across dozens of venues around the city, while the film branch has quickly become one of the world&#8217;s premiere film festivals, focussing on new directing talent.</p>
<p>&#xD;</p>
<p>Zilker Park in Austin is the venue for the Austin City Limits Music Festival, an annual three-day music and art festival.  Bringing together more than 130 bands over eight stages, the festival combines rock, country, folk, indie, Americana, hip-hop, reggae and bluegrass artists, and attracts a crowd of around 65,000 music-lovers every day.  The festival has been such a huge success that it is often compared to other top rock festivals held in the United States, including Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza and Coachella.  Other annual events held in Austin include Eeyore&#8217;s Birthday Party and the Austin Reggae Festival &#8211; previously named the Bob Marley Festival.</p>
<p>&#xD;</p>
<p>If Austin&#8217;s music scene isn&#8217;t for you, Austin is also the home of a lot of artists.  On Guadalupe, you&#8217;ll find a host of local artistic talent selling their works at the Renaissance Market; while every first Thursday of the month, the eclectic shops on South Congress stay open late, with artists selling their artwork on the sidewalks, accompanied by musicians playing in the streets.  For a more contemporary view of Austin&#8217;s art scene, pay a visit to the Blanton Museum of Art, a 155,000 square foot museum situated on the University&#8217;s campus, housing some 17,000 works of art from Europe, the United States and Latin America.</p>
<p>&#xD;</p>
<p>Residents in Austin need little cause to celebrate, and &#8216;Austinites&#8217;, as they are known, take pride in their eccentricities and often celebrate the differences between themselves and other cities in the U.S.  The local motto &#8211; &#8216;Keep Austin Weird&#8217; &#8211; features on innumerable bumper stickers, tT-shirts and other memorabilia.  Famous Austinites include country singer Willie Nelson, cyclist Lance Armstrong, Aactress Sandra Bullock and tennis player Andy Roddick.</p>
<p>&#xD;</p>
<p>When it comes to eating out in Austin, you would be forgiven for expecting the Texas &#8216;Holy Trinity&#8217; of barbecue, Tex-Mex and chicken-fried steak.  However, Austin now possesses a much more sophisticated and international flair, with the Wall Street Journal naming the city as one of the country&#8217;s &#8220;up and coming culinary hotspots.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#xD;</p>
<p>To get the very best experience of this culturally diverse and exciting city, look for a <a rel="nofollow" onclick="javascript:_gaq.push(['_trackPageview', '/outgoing/article_exit_link']);" href="http://hamptoninn.hilton.com/en/hp/hotels/index.jhtml?ctyhocn=AUSDTHX">hotel in Austin</a> that is situated in the Central or Downtown areas of the city.  Just remember that Austin is a city where it&#8217;s considered normal to be a little out of the ordinary!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>A Grape Time in Austin, Texas</strong></p>
<p>Considered by many to be one of the premier nightlife spots in the country, Austin, Texas boasts a high-energy bar scene and entertainment district, and the moniker, &#8220;The Live Music Capital of the World.&#8221; In addition to the literally hundreds of bars, clubs and restaurants that make up Austin&#8217;s downtown, a newer type of establishment is quickly growing in popularity among locals and tourists alike: the wine bar. The twenty-something University of Texas at Austin crowd can keep 6th Street and it&#8217;s rowdy, raucous bars and dance clubs; Austin&#8217;s older, more sophisticated set has found a posh and cozy new home in Austin&#8217;s burgeoning wine bar scene.  Let&#8217;s take a closer look at three of the most popular spots for fans of the fermented grape.</p>
<p>&#xD;<br />
1.Cork &amp; Company<br />&#xD;<br />
Cork &amp; Co.&#8217;s fun, flirty atmosphere makes it one of Austin&#8217;s most popular casual wine bars. With its low-key vibe and emphasis on making wine fun, Cork &amp; Co. consistently serves up a good time. Patrons enjoy wine appreciation classes (think &#8220;Pottery, Paint &amp; Prosecco&#8221;), great happy hour specials, a wide selection of wines for sale by the flight, glass, or bottle, and even lively trivia games. Located at 308 Congress Ave., Cork &amp; Co. is uniquely situated in the heart of downtown, close to restaurants, clubs, and a great view of the capital. </p>
<p>&#xD;<br />
2.Cru Wine Bar<br />&#xD;<br />
Self described as &#8220;an exciting destination to experience and explore the fascinating world of wine,&#8221; Cru offers Austin&#8217;s wine aficionados more than 300 wines to choose from, with a selection of more than a dozen unique wine flights daily. Cru&#8217;s welcoming, yet sophisticated atmosphere make it a great option for any personality, and its two convenient locations (with one downtown, at 238 West 2nd Street, and another at North Austin&#8217;s trendy Domain shopping center) make it one of the more accessible wine bars in Austin.  In addition to an extensive array of wines, Cru&#8217;s patrons can enjoy a delectable, Mediterranean inspired menu of starters and entrees (including steamed mussels, seared ahi tuna and stone-fired pizzas), or can simply snack on one of their deliciously creative cheese flights.</p>
<p>&#xD;<br />
3.Taste<br />&#xD;<br />
The newest edition to Austin&#8217;s sommelier scene, Taste (officially called Taste Select Wines) offers a unique spin on the traditional wine bar concept. Offering a full (though brief and often changing) menu, Taste combines delicious culinary treats (the roast Texas quail is a true delicacy, and the cheese plate is creative, decadent and delicious) with exquisite wines and an extremely knowledgeable (and yet surprisingly unpretentious) staff. Perhaps the best thing about Taste (located downtown at 202 West Cesar Chavez St.) is the self-serve section. Wine aficionados on the go can sample one of the dozens of wines Taste offers literally on tap. Simply hand over your credit card upon entering the bar, and you&#8217;ll receive a key card that provides access to a wealth of different wines from across the globe for you to swipe and sample at your leisure. Just hand the key card over when you&#8217;re done, and the staff will tally your drinks and charge you accordingly. But sampler beware, this is a deliciously easy way to blow your budget!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>The Music Scene in Austin Texas Music Capital of the World</strong></p>
<p>When you mention Austin Texas to most people the first thing that usually comes to mind is music. Since 1976, the television show Austin City Limits has brought music into living rooms around the world. It is no wonder that music is the first thing we think of when we hear Austin, Texas. Austin officially became known as the music capital of the world in 1991. It got this distinction because compared to all areas nationwide, Austin has more live music venues per capita. With over 200 live music venues and thousands of artists calling Austin home, you can see a live music show at just about any time you want. </p>
<p>The Austin City Limits television show that is still filmed today on the University of Texas at Austin campus might have been the initial start of this city&#8217;s music claim to fame but the sheer volume of artist and venues makes this town truly musical. Not only are there daily live venues but there are festivals that bring out all kinds of music and entertainment. The most popular festival is The Austin City Limits Festival. With over 100 artists filling Austin&#8217;s Zilkner Park, this annual festival brings out the best of the best in talent.

<p>Music Venues in Austin Span the Entire City</p>
<p>There are other festivals as well, the Pachanga Festival is the area&#8217;s Latin-themed festival and Urban Music fest is a celebration of urban culture. You don&#8217;t just have to go to festivals for music in Austin, as every day venues of all kinds across the city offer just about any kind of music a person could possibly be looking for. </p>
<p>Music in Austin is much more than festivals and music venues, however. There are dozens of music cafes and restaurants around the area. The thing a lot of people will find interesting is that the music doesn&#8217;t stop there. In Austin you can expect to find music performances at the airport, city hall, and even grocery stores such Whole Foods Market with its &#8220;Music at the Market&#8221; series held in the spring. </p>
<p>Austin is music. The venues, restaurants, city locations all cater to the music scene. You can&#8217;t go to Austin and not enjoy the music.

With beautiful hills and wonderful natural views, Austin is an ideal area for starting a family and raising children. For parents who have children who plan to study in the University of Texas in Austin, it would not be surprising to easily find a new home that is near the campus. It is also not that difficult for anyone to find a home close to or within downtown Austin.</p>
<p>Since the prices of new <a rel="nofollow" onclick="javascript:_gaq.push(['_trackPageview', '/outgoing/article_exit_link']);" href="http://www.galleryre.com/"><strong>Homes in Austin</strong></a> are very affordable at this time, people who are dreaming of owning lake houses or big parcels of land in the area will realize that their goal is not that difficult to reach. A lakefront home is not only good for vacation purposes. It is also an ideal place to retire. Families who are adventurous and into water sports would find that a property near or in front of a lake can be a good investment.</p>
<p>With three major lakes in Austin, opportunities to own a lakefront real estate are not hard to come by. For investors, even if the prices of homes in prime locations in Austin are not that high these days, you will surely see a good return on your investment when the housing market gets back to normal.</p>
<p>Lastly, now is a good time to buy new Austin homes because banks offer low interest rates for mortgages or home loans. If you are a first-time buyer, you probably have a good credit rating and you are not experiencing foreclosure and other mortgage woes that many Americans are suffering at present. If you and your spouse have stable jobs and you have substantial savings for down payment, then there is no reason for you to avoid investing in <a rel="nofollow" onclick="javascript:_gaq.push(['_trackPageview', '/outgoing/article_exit_link']);" href="http://www.galleryre.com/"><strong>Austin Properties</strong></a>. However, before you sign any contract, be sure to inspect the property first. There are many new (or even old) homes to choose from in the area, so be sure to look around.</p>
