About this audiobook
Kinky Friedman, the original Texas Jew boy, guides readers through the sights, sounds, food, and various and sundry oddities of his favorite Texas city. Known for live music and food, Austin is also the home of Willie Nelson, Janis Joplin, Stevie Ray Vaughan, and a number of other music legends. In this slightly insane and surprisingly practical guide to the coolest city in Texas, you ll find out which restaurant President Bush thinks is the best burger joint; you ll get a glimpse of Willie Nelson’s home; and the best view of the Mexican free-tailed bats as they make their nightly flights to and from the Congress Avenue Bridge.

- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5Instead of learning a bunch about fun places to go in Austin, I learned a lot about how big the author's ego is and how funny he isn't. I found the tone of this book supremely annoying. I can't finish it.
