ACL scene report: Bill Murray at the fest

C3’s Charles Attal picked the right day to wear his Bushwoods Country Club t-shirt. The tee is modeled after the shirt Bill Murray wore as the groundskeeper in “Caddyshack.” It was given to Attal as a joke because he’s been the defacto groundskeeper at Zilker this week, making sure the fields are watered at night.

Well, Bill Murray himself showed up backstage at ACL. “We gave him an all access badge and keys to a golf cart,” says C3’s Charlie Jones, who later saw Murray at the monitor board during Mars Volta’s set Friday. Murray was in town for Fantastic Fest.

  • Also seen on the scene was Elijah Wood from “Lord of the Rings.”

  • Daniel Johnston is rumored to be a special guest at the Swell Season’s taping at “Austin City Limits.”

  • Dust, what dust? Jones said C3 received “zero” complaints about dust Friday. C3 has been rigorously watering fields for weeks, he said. Also, unlike the dust bowl of ‘05, the grass was left long.
