The Great Psychedelic Armadillo Picnic

From the charismatic, eccentric Kinky Friedman comes ‘œThe Great Psychedelic Armadillo Picnic”, a celebration of the sights, sounds & spirit of Austin, Texas. The original, inimitable Jewish cowboy and aspirant Governor of Texas – who hopes to reduce speeding limits to $54.95 – takes us on a near-spiritual walk through the town, covering everything from its legendary music venues to Willie Nelson’™s home. It even includes an Austin-themed wordsearch.Part guide, part recollections, part trivia and part cultural handbook, ‘œThe Great Psychedelic Armadillo Picnic” captures the atmosphere and soul of Austin in a brilliantly entertaining, joyous & irreverent tone, as well as giving an almost conversational window into the mind of Friedman, one of the most distinctive personalities in a city that attracts a whirlwind of musicians, artists, oddballs & eccentrics.Too bad he didn’™t win the Governorship in 2006 – maybe next time.
