![Congress Closed for Parade, Naaman Esquivel, Daily Texan](https://i0.wp.com/kraft.blog/uploads/2004/08/armstrong_parade_closure.jpg?resize=250%2C174&quality=89&ssl=1)
The early closure is to allow for the construction of a stage on Congress for preformances by the Steve Miller Band and Robert Earl Keen. With a backdrop of the Capitol, Austinites will do what Austinites do best: party.
The streets will reopen at various times through Saturday, according to a City of Austin press release.
As I rode by it today, I’m looking forward to the parade. I’ve been in parades in Wichita Falls, but nothing close to what Friday will be like. I haven’t posted nearly as much lately because I’m being slammed by tests. Nonetheless, the itch to post still got to me.
