A chip off the old block

Don't mean to bore you with a daughter story but it is Q related...

The center of my universe (read 20 year old daughter) was in Austin, TX recently for the South by Southwest Music Conference. She said she wanted to find some good Texas BBQ (she makes me proud). Someone took her to one of the so-called legendary places. I couldn't wait to get her report..

"Well dad, it was probably okay in its day but it's just gone corporate..."

Pardon a dad's boast about his only child...

Glad to hear your little girl made ya proud!

jt · Mar 24, 2005

Good report from your girl! Sounds like you trained her well.

And now you have the opportunity to make her some real Q.

SXSW and Q gone corporate. I'll guess Stubb's.

It was Stubbs...

Jorge · Mar 24, 2005

It happens. Stubb's can be hit or miss. SXSW was the big clue. In fairness the crush of people has to make it tough for them to turn out a consistent above average product. It's also a great place for some Q and quality entertainment on the right night. Hope she enjoyed the trip, and Austin

Texas Tech was in the middle of friggin nowhere...and flat.. (stand on a 5 gal bucket, look east, and see the back of your head FLAT)
UT Austin was too crammed into the middle of downtown Austin
Cal Poly SLO was a hair too patchouli funk iykwim
