A question.

Since Austin is home to so many musicians, is that where "Austin City
Limits" got it's start?

Absolutely. There was a huge void when this joint closed, and they
did the best they could to fill it.

Go to the bottom of the page and look under the Legacy heading. ACL
was simply the taping (and heavy editing) of the shows that were held
here and there, reminiscent of the old Armadillo.

Check out the partial list of luminaries that were there in its ten
short years at the bottom of the page. Pretty damn impressive, and
quite a legacy for old Austin.
