“Any musician playing the Austin City Limits Festival, and any fan lucky enough to be there knows it - music rarely gets as pure and heartfelt as what happens on those hallowed stages. From the kinetic power of Bright Eyes, to the last ringing notes of REM's stunningly personal turn as headliners, this is what happens when a performance takes off... soars... and never lands.”
-Cameron Crowe

In September 2003, two hundred thousand music fans congregated in Austin, TX to share a weekend of performances from more than 130 bands. People from all over the world experienced the orange sky above during Steve Winwood's electrifying performance, the nostalgia of R.E.M.'s set and the excitement of hearing Robert Randolph Playing a song he rarely plays live anymore.

In the spirit of the legendary public television show, this compilation captures the eclectic nature of the festival and allows those unable to make the shows to step back in time and those in attendance to recall the weekend.
