If you've lived in Austin for a while, you've surely heard the twang-pop of Dallas' Old 97's by now.

The band eventually outgrew (or chose to downplay) most of their country influences, becoming more pop-rock oriented with each new album. By the time their last major label record "Satellite Rides" was released, the 97's were totally radio friendly, though we suppose that means XM or Sirius these days, since they never really got any airtime.

We need to make sure we find a candidate who will protect the natural resources, scenic beauty and camp grounds for all the hippies.
