In the time of B.C.

 Just something to think about.

All of this happened BEFORE Cassanova and the first "official" picture of Jake and Austin together.

Before Casanova- try before TDAT - Jake and Austin at Club Lotus in New York just weeks after casting for TDAT.

 (And it only took what 6-7 years? for this picture to pop up?)

Of course TDAT

 By each others side on

 and off screen

And don't forget their cooking experiments Austin gushed about in an interview. (Two whole chickens and radishes)

Then that smile that is only for one fella (Nov 2005)

Then Cassanova happened

 

 

Just a reminder that there can be a lot of things going on you might not see but doesn't mean they aren't happening.

It's been a while...

It's that time of year again ... Austin City Limits

ACL is spread out over two weekends -  last weekend and this weekend with a line up that covers everything from Vampire Weekend, Depeche Mode, Questlove and Arctic Monkeys to Lionel Richie, Blind Boys of Alabama and Queens of the Stone Age.  And it wouldn't be ACL with Asleep at the Wheel.

Check out the whole line up  here.



So when this twitpic of the handsome Tall Texan at a show popped up today - it looked like he going home to raise ACL.

He was definitely rocking it out and looking fine.  And he makes totally makes curl up and die take on a whole new meaning.

That picture is of Austin... in Austin ... but it's not Austin City Limits.

While the multiple stages at Zinkler Park the site of ACL run on the two weekends, it doesn't stop Austin (the city) from having some late night fun. There are some late night shows during the week between the two weekends.

For an example here's the line up of the late night shows last night:

Thursday, October 10

Patty Griffin
@Stubb’s Waller Creek Amphitheater

Phosphorescent
with JD McPherson and Shakey Graves
@Emo’s Austin

Wavves
with King Tuff and Jacuzzi Boys
@Antone’s

Mord Fustang
with Jesse Rose
@Haven

Whiskey Shivers
with Hello Wheels
@Stubb’s Indoors

The Autumn Defense and Desert Noises
with Blue Bear
@Lamberts

So it kind of looked like Austin might have been at one of those show.

But the question isn't just where was the curly hair cutie with the VIP sticker in this picture but when?

Well... when you look closer at the VIP sticker you'll see a familiar color -
Maroon.  As in Maroon 5.

Are they playing ACL?  Nope.

But Austin did see them in Austin didn't he - back in Sept.

 Excited to watch my bros Maroon 5 rip it tonight in Austin, TX. - Sept 18

 My bros are shredding!! - Sept 18

And does the background and lighting look same as the new twitpic?  Yup

What a crazy coincidence huh? ; )

Happy Austin Sneaky Friday!

Point A to Point B and Point See

Jake is in NY right?

Well....it doesn't look like it sometime in the last week Jake was in LA.

How?

Because there is a video of him at the Dr.'s office in Beverly Hills this week and is driving the family truckster - the black Audi this time




And we know by the hair it's recent because that is the hair cut he has currently.


Now why didn't he want the paps to see him?

Could it have been that he was supposed to be in NY?

Because when is the last time there was a big splash in People about what Jake was doing?

Oh right yesterday talking about Jake and Jay-Z catching the NCAA championship game at the 40/40 club on Monday April 8th.

When was the video of him at the Dr?  It was uploaded Saturday April 6th.

Now could it be that that splashy story was to cover Jake's trip back to NY this week?

Could it be to make it look like he wasn't in LA last weekend (despite all the tweets of him  NYC)?

Or could it be a distraction for him to get back on the West Coast this weekend?

Or maybe it is all of the above.


And speaking of covering their tracks, when is the last time Austin tweeted exactly what he was doing on a Saturday night.

That would be tonight

This is what film geeks do on Saturday night. - AUS10

I am ....

...not two.
But four.
Look's like Jake was not a twosome but a foursome at the table. Friends hanging out.

It was more of a guys afternoon, with Rashida being outnumbered 3-1 at the table and 4-1 if you include that happy not seen for a while Atti.Jake's been a fan of Cafe Gratitude first up in the Bay Area and then when they opened a location in LA. So what is it that makes Gratitude different than some of Jake's favorites such as Urth Cafe, or M Cafe? Might be Gratitude's attitude. It's "sunshine and rainbows" according to the NY Times.

And the LA Times puts it this way: "After several weeks of dining at Café Gratitude, one might find oneself Vibrant, Grounded, Whole, Loved, Magical, Precious and Cozy, but never Hung Over, Angry, Jealous, Hurt or Sorry. In fact, the restaurant is so uniformly bright and cheery that it borders on pathological. Think Disneyland gone vegan, sans the heartland tourists wearing fanny packs."

The menu is partly raw, and partly cooked. Everything is 100% organic and vegan.The restaurant is all about the experience of positivity and affirmations and to those sharing the experience. The cover of the menu reads: “We invite you to step inside and enjoy being someone who chooses: loving your life, adoring yourself, accepting the world, being generous and grateful everyday, and experiencing being provided for.”

Starting out the meal the server asks "Today's Question", which could be something like “What do you love to give?” and the good vibe time continues to the menu with dishes such as I Am Thriving (butternut squash chipotle soup), I Am Elated (enchiladas), I Am Transformed (corn tacos) and I Am Extraordinary ("BLT" sandwich). When served,the meal is now not an "I am" but a "You are" as in, the server saying "You are Extraordinary" as it is place in front of you.

The flower child vibe feeling is throughout the restaurant, because when even toilet seats are called awesome covers, it's edging on trippy.But don't look for bacon in that BLT, but sautéed maple coconut instead.

And then dessert. With such choices as I am Magnificent (Chocolate Mousse), I am Irrestibile (Chocolate Coconut Cream Pie), I am Awakening (Creamy avocado- key lime custard torte), I am Bliss (Chocolate Hazelnut Cream Torte), I am Cherished (seasonal pie) to name a few.

Seeing Jake , Rashida and Mr. Denim go spoons in, and knowing Jake you wonder if they are splitting the"I am Adoring" (Tiramisu) as their dessert.If you bring your own bowl to Cafe Gratitude, they will give you a discount on your entree.

And Atti? The pet friendly place comps Atti's bowl of water.Even paying your bill is a bit different at Gratitude, as in giving an affirmation to say to bring positive energy for the rest of the day.One thing you wonder if Gratitude ever put "I am Toothy" (maybe a caramel nut torte) would Jake order it? Just for that cheeky grin Jake would get when they served it ... "You are Toothy".

Austin? He would be about the hot sauce.
Or doing his best Stuart Smalley
