Star Of Texas Fair And Rodeo

The Star of Texas Fair and Rodeo is coming up at the beginning of March in Austin. Some great acts both in the arena and in the fairgrounds.

Fairgrounds: http://www.rodeoaustin.com/entertainment/outdoor_entertainment.php
Artists include the Dedringers, the Gougers, Walt Wilkins & the Mystiqueros, Stoney Larue, Ray Wylie Hubbard, the Hudsons, Mike McClure.

Arena: http://www.rodeoaustin.com/entertainment/arena_entertainment.php
I can only in good conscience recommend you go see Willie, George Jones and Randy Rogers. And possibly Styx.

FYI, The Fairgrounds acts are free with your ticket to the midway and the arena acts are separately priced.
