Sorry I didn't make it over, various reasons, none great, but pressing nonetheless. (Also, the cold wind kills my eyes--dry eye is a bitch.) I suspect I'd have been gnashing my teeth over the traffic--the main reason I rarely drive to Dallas (45 miles away). I think the train to the bus would be an excellent option if the train between Fort Worth and Dallas ran later in the evening than it does.
I'm glad to read that Jed and sorefingers had a good time. I don't know about the recommendation, though, sorefingers--if you can't hear the music, that's bad enough, but to go hang out in a crowd of people, many of them drunk Texans?
