TallTenor to perform in Austin!
College buddy and Razor commenter Bill Joyner will be performing this month in the Austin Lyric Opera's production of Carmen. Performing the role of Don Jose (a role he has played around the world), Bill is described in this blurb as "one of the most sought-after tenors on the international opera scene."
The production will play on April 18, 20, 24, & 26, and you can buy tickets here. I know I'll be there, probably on the 24th, as I am giving a lecture that day in Austin. Do you think Bill would find my lecture on changes in narcotics sentencing as interesting as I will find Carmen? Er, probably not. But, since he is my only opera star friend, it doesn't have to be a mutual exchange.
So, Austin experts, what advice to you have for Bill as to what he should be enjoying while spending the month in Austin?

He should have a meal at the restaurant "Vespaio." It is an italian place on S. Congress that blew me away when I ate there. They even make their own mozzeralla cheese!
Hoover's Fire and Ice House. Soul Food, award winning margaritas, good people.
Trudy's - get the chicken stuffed avocado with the white sauce.
Mi Madres Breakfast Tacos (across from Hoovers)
South Congress Cafe
Row Boats on Town Lake
Barton Springs will be nice this time of year.
Do catch that Blues show at Antone's, if you can. If the "Eastside Kings" are playing, check them out.
When in doubt, stick your index and pinky fingers up and hold your middle and ring fingers down with your thumb. Show everyone what you're doing.

Oh! Oh! I saw this guy once do that thing with his hand. It looked kind of strange.

You can't really spend any significant amount of time in Austin without going to the original Chuy's on Barton Springs Road. Excellent Tex-Mex, decent prices, classic Austin atmosphere.
