The easy thing for us to do would be to say this weekend is all about the Austin City Limits music festival. ACL is huge for Austin and there are many exciting acts that will grace their stages but austin.com wants to also feature some events going on at the same time around town. You could win a Gibson guitar on austin.com this weekend. Come see the Gibson tour bus at MUSICMAKERS outside of ACL friday.
