Production Company C3 Purchased Scoot Inn, and More A.M. Intel

— Production company C3 (the business behind ACL Music festival and Austin Food & Wine Festival) bought longtime bar Scoot Inn. Chronicle reports that the locks were changed. C3 purchased the bar from Doug Guller, who had unveiled a new lounge within the bar last year. It should be noted that Guller temporarily shuttered his Austin location of the Chicago deep dish pizza chain Gino’s East for a remodeling. Scoot Inn's building first opened in 1871, and it became a bar in 1940.

— DJ collective Chulita Vinyl Club took issue with being told to change the music it played during its gig at an opening party for Aloft/Element Austin Downtown hotel's Upstairs at Caroline. The group said they were told by a manager that "this hotel does not play Latin music," and that "you are bringing the vibe down." The rest of the bar's management apologized shortly afterward, and wrote on Facebook that it was "a miscommunication at the end of their set." A member of Chilita said that "they just did not welcome us." Austin 360 shared another statement from the general manager David Meisner, who said that they "wanted to switch the tempo of the music" to get ready for the end of service at the restaurant.
