re: 2026 Two Step Inn Music Festival

2024 we got involved late and had to stay in Pflugerville (20 min). 2025 we stayed IN Georgetown. 2026 We will be in Georgetown.
Staying further away will save you in AirBnB costs, but if you plan to drink at the festival you either have to deal with the reality of the longer drive, or you have to pay peak pricing for Uber, and the Uber drivers are really going to bump it up on you if they have 40 minute round trips to get back, as it will limit the amount of fares they can do in one night.
IF you are driving, be aware that there is no parking at the venue, and no parking allowed in the neighborhoods. You will need to pay $25/day to park at one of the two local high schools which will provide a shuttle to and from the park where the festival is being held. In year's past they have had a parking location and shuttle available from downtown Austin as well, however I don't see that option this year.

Every year they have had a couple of artist that didn't fit the country genre, plus some DJ sets. This year they have the Goo Goo Dolls and BigXThaPlug.
It seems odd, but Ludacris in 2024 and Nelly in 2025 were pretty fun to see and had some really good crowds at their stages. Add in Skynyrd last year, and those non-country shows are pretty good.

It is one of those events that is so well run that we are ALWAYS considering going. After the first year we went (2024) we booked a fully refundable AirBnB for each weekend of April 2025 so that we KNEW we had a place to stay for the festival. The wife did that while we were driving back to Louisiana.
Did the same thing this year.
When they release the dates we keep that weekend and cancel the others. Then we wait until they release the lineup in September/October, if we don't like what we see, we can always cancel the AirBnB. So far though, the lineups have been awesome, filled will people we want to see that are new artists and 90s country superstars.

I believe it is a tribute band consisting of Randy's original band and a guy named James Dupre standing in for Randy. Dupree sounds a lot like him.

2026 Two Step Inn Music Festival
Posted by SaturdayTraditions on 9/26/25 at 2:46 pm
The Two Step Inn music festival has announced it's lineup and opened ticket sales for it's fourth annual festival held in Georgetown, Tx.
The wife and I have gone each of the last two years (2024 & 2025), and will be headed back for the 3rd straight year. It is an awesome, well run event, with plenty of space, plenty of music, and plenty of delicious food and beer. Has anyone else gone before?

Well that is unfortunate. With their enrollment they should be competitive in athletics, and unfortunately they are not.

Pineville is the only one on our schedule and that’s just because the administration there does not care about football in any way. They are more interested in the arts allegedly. Their aloofness has allowed ASH to rise due to taking every player in that area.
The city of Pineville recently passed a bond measure that includes them getting a turf football field for the 2026 season. So to my knowledge, this will be the final season of natural grass for Pineville.
Also, while I have heard the same thing about the administration... a turf field is expensive and it doesn't JUST come down to admin. Many places simply don't have the money to invest in a football field.
Lastly, I believe I read where Pineville has new Administration this year. So maybe that will turn around for them.

I'm sure we have at least one unemployed person on the board who has the time to create a grass vs turf spreadsheet with all schools listed and then compile the data based off answers on this board.

What’s the ratio of grass-to-turf fields in Louisiana? I’ve seen an explosion of turf over the last few years.
I don't debate that, and in my experience I would say its getting close to 33% turf, 67% grass. That would be a fascinating study to complete.

I’m trying to ask this question / figure it out respectfully here:
Can someone explain to me the interest in high school football if you don’t have a kid on a team or don’t live near the school you went to / played for? I played and personally couldn’t care less about HS ball. I watch college and pro football religiously however
I’m genuinely curious and glad that people like it, I just really don’t get it and want to hear what I may be missing about it. Not above changing opinions.
1. It is the social aspect of it. Friends are there watching their kids or nephews and it is a fun end-of-the-week activity that you can bring small children to without drowning in debt.
2. It is great networking if you are in a sales job in your hometown.
3. Nostalgia. The grass still smells the same, the band still sounds the same, and the lights are just a bright as they were 30+ years ago when I played,
4... and this one is more personal, I'm a referee. So I like to keep up with what is happening in the state because if I do well enough in the regular season, I may get to see one of those teams or D1 commits during the playoffs up close and personal.
re: Astros blocked out in Br area..

In Alexandria, we are blacked out from both the Rangers and the Astros. Only ever matters to me if the Cubs are playing one of those two teams. Otherwise I don't have to worry about it.

Respect the game and run the damn thing out until he steps on the frickin bag, it ain't that hard it really isn't. If running 30 feet hard is wasting energy for a professional athlete, then he ain't a frickin professional athlete. Quit giving them that BS excuse.
He let up because he was pouting about grounding out to the right side for the 50th frickin consecutive time and having a pity party for himself. The percentage of chance is irrelevant to me on this.
Rah Rah, get off my lawn! Miss me with the "respect the game" crap. If he had run it out you'd still be here bitching about him grounding out again. The truth is, you're projecting your anger about how the Cubs have been playing recently onto something that literally didn't make a difference.

Just read Tucker didn't even run out a ground ball in the 6th. I don't boo players very much at all.....very, very seldom. But if I saw a guy getting paid $16 million a year not even try to run out a ground ball....if I was there I absolutely would have booed....I'm paying $100 for a ticket and $12 a beer, damn right I'm booing that garbage
If you had watched the play, it was a ground ball to the first baseman a few steps off the bag. Once the first baseman secured the ground ball, there was a less than zero percent chance Tucker "running it out" would have mattered. No need to waste any energy on that.
Had it been a ground ball to short I would agree with you as there is still a chance for a bad throw, but in this situation, the only thing that would've given Tucker a chance was if the first baseman had a heart attack and dropped dead on the spot.

Page 2 and not one mention of Lindsey Simmons? She is a smoke-show! Even if it wasn't a great store, it would be worth shopping there just for the chance to bump into her.
