The M.O.
Born in Austin, Matthew left soon thereafter and finally made it back after years of paying his penance wandering the earth. Before coming to Austin360, Matthew co-edited Austinist.com, worked as an advertising copywriter and led tours of the Roman Forum, among other things.
When not busy pounding away on his keyboard, he can be found at book readings, concerts, gelaterias, pizza joints, Barton Springs, movie theaters, the golf course, or home with a book. The M.O. gives readers a little insight into the world of this man without a plan.

This post is simply to serve as an announcement that Bill Cosby has canceled his shows in Austin that were scheduled for June 3 6 at the Austin Music Hall. I was somewhat personally disappointed to hear the news, as I was hoping to interview the legend about his comedy, his upcoming ‘unflinching’ hip-hop album, and his personal opinions on the state of American culture and all that implies.
Publicists tell us that the cancellation was due to a scheduling issue. No word on whether The Coz plans on rescheduling for our fair burg.

I am sorry he cancelled, the but Austin Music Hall is not good for a comedian. Went to see Ray Romano and Brad Gabbert….the acoustics were so bad - you couldn’t understand half of what they said - the echos in the hall hindered what could have been a good and funny show.
