Townes was cool. I used to run into him at the old 11th Door, where Symphony Square at 11th and Red River is now.

Hah. I just won a bet with myself. I knew if anyone around here would have known Townes, it would be you, Art. I've known a few people who ran with Townes or drank with him years ago, and every one of them has said that he was a charming guy.
My darling wife and I navigated the hipsters and scenesters in downtown Austin in order to get a copy of Be Here to Love Me, but by the time we got there the barbecue was pretty much all gone. I swear, you mention free food to music industry goofballs and it'll be gone in minutes. Still, we did get the DVD and a signed copy of the movie poster, so it wasn't all bad.
