Apparently KLRU has a new web only show which will premiere his summer called ACL Stage Left, which is supposed to feature a more intimate performance space than its big brother. Looks like it's to be directed by Dutch Rall, who does in context.tv for PBS.
There's a taping next Weds, Apr 8th, with David Garza. It's free but you have to RSVP here:

And here's a clip from the pilot shoot with Sarah Jaffe:

So we went to this taping this evening. Was done in the smaller space next to the main ACL sound stage. David played for about 45 mins, I would guess, bunch of tunes I recognized but none I knew the names of. Hell, this is only the second time I've seen him, that I can recall.
Anyhow, the band sounded great, his piano playing was really a treat - had only seen him on gtr before - and the energy in the room was pretty tangible despite the fact that the audience was seated at minimum 10 feet from the stage and there were 4 cameras obstructing part of the view at various moments.
Only snag was when the show started, the sound guy [who is probably cleaning out his locker] didn't have the front fills on, so all you heard was the piano in the room and David's vocals through the monitors. Halfway through the song, boom, front fills come alive but then there's a massive bout of feedback. Everyone laughs, he kind of vamps for a minute, then goes right back into it.
The guy's a great performer, a great player, and his band is amazing. I've got a serious crush on his 'lead' drummer, don't know her name but she's fun as hell to watch.
Hoping they do more of these, it was a lot of fun. Oh, and there was free beer. AND they're taking emails/suggestions about bands people might like to see on there.
