I’ve been performing in Austin a few times a year at least since 1996 - I remember breaking some furniture at the Hole in the Wall that year and they still asked me back. When my son Tommy moved to Austin a couple of years ago he arranged to meet me at that very same bar. Nothing much has changed and everything is different but I was warned I’d missed Austin’s golden years back in 1989 when the Mekons blew through for the first time - Bollocks I say! Austin is a place where stuff happens and when Tommy got involved in the construction of a new studio I made a point to visit, have a poke around and finally take a bunch of local musicians over to try it out…
