The Live Music capital of the World” is Austin’s official slogan having a vibrant live music scene with quite a lot of music venues. Austin is the capital of Texas and a breeding place of film, music and multimedia festivals. It is famous for its nightclubs, unconventional lifestyle and diverse beliefs. People in Austin (Austinites) take pride in their eccentricity and diverse culture with a local motto of “Keep Austin Weird.” It is well known for the popular culture and support for local and independent businesses. It has also been a favorite site for several motion pictures partly because of the Department of Radio-Television Film course in The University of Texas at Austin. Museums, art establishments, music centres, zoo, resorts and other tourist attractions are also located all over the city.
