**Official Austin EV Wishlist Foundation Pre-Party***

Step out on the porch to discuss Pearl Jam's music, tour, appearances, causes they support, etc. It's all about Pearl Jam here.

Who needs food, when you have music, beer and soon to be good friends! Can't get better than this. Whose airport has displays of multi colored guitars by the baggage claim. You can't go wrong!

Now I'm really getting excited. have listened to PJ Radio for a month non-stop. I can sing along to any song anyone pulls out now :-)

Great to know the pre party is a micro brew. those make the best hang outs.

For Breakfast if you are near 6th Street I recommend this:

24 Diner (600 North Lamar) is right next to Waterloo Records which is only 2nd to Easy Street in Seattle for cool record stores in my opinion. Or Whole Foods is practically right across the street and has great food. So you can get your vinyl, your breakfast, and meet some Austin hipsters.

Other good breakfasts and brunch:
Magnolia Cafe
Kerbey Lane
South Congress Cafe
Moonshine Patio Bar and Grill
(you can get breakfast tacos just about anywhere)

As far as coffee goes:
Patika Coffee
Sumermoon Coffee Bar
Jo's Coffee
12: DeLuna Festival
11: PJ20 Destination Weekend
10: Cleveland, Columbus
09: Austin, Seattle I, Seattle II
08: Tampa
03: Bridge School II, Bonner Springs, Houston, San Antonio
00: Houston I
98: Noblesville, Chicago, Alpine Valley II
96: Toledo

Thank you!! Waterloo Records is already on the itinerary so I think 24 Diner for breakfast it is! Austin hipsters hang out at Whole Foods? :lol: :lol:

All those cafes sound great, looks like I'll be well-fed and caffeinated by the time evening rolls around!

So everyone knows our Night One musical talent: MFC2006 half of Cluthe/Lee but you probably do not know our musical guest for Night Two. Let me introduce all of you to Emily Wolfe. She will be playing two sets at the Fundraiser on the 28th. She is an indie/folky pop artist with an amazing voice. I think you will find her a great lead into Glen and Eddie.

You can check her music out here:

There's a super 8 on 35, just outside of downtown..is that one alread filled up? I don't know about that best western, but I've stayed just a bit south of there at the fairfield off of 35 and Koenig Ln and it was fine. Just checked the reviews for that Best Western and they aren't bad so I'm sure it'll work...just a little bit of a hike from downtown, but you'll spend most of the afternoon at the preparty anyway so it's just a place to crash for the night.
