Last Minute Shopping, Austin Style
The countdown is now underway as the clock ticks down to Christmas...and the traffic gets heavier on the roads to the mall. We just returned from a last minute shopping excursion at the Armadillo Christmas Bazaar, held this year at the Austin Convention Center.
The event, which started in the Armadillo World Headquarters, features unique arts and crafts, jewelry, ironwork (the neatest piece we saw featured an iron bat, a reminder of the Mexican free-tailed bats that will return to Austin this March), yarnwork, and more.But one of the most distinctive features of the show is the live music stage. Jimmy LaFave, Marcia Ball, W.C. Clark, Sara Hickman, and others are all on this year's lineup. And, although Christmas is just around the corner, there's still a full weekend of music on the way: The Eggmen (a great Beatles tribute band) and The Derailers will be playing tomorrow. The music continues up until 11pm Monday, Christmas Eve.
