Still struggling in the ratings, NBC's Friday Night Lights continues mining the Austin music scene. This week's beneficiaries were Li'l Cap'n Travis, who filmed a scene Friday afternoon at the Continental Club. "It was kind of silly," singer/guitarist Matt Kinsey reports. "We had to do some pantomiming while they recorded dialogue, and that makes you feel like a dork." The band played "3.2 Beer of Love" and "Sugar Buzz" in the scene that Kinsey says involves quadriplegic former quarterback Jason Street's wheelchair-rugby team. "I don't want to spoil anything for you," he smiles. "Sugar Buzz" is from LCT's forthcoming album, which Kinsey says should be out in a couple of months. "It sounds great," he says. "It's got our version of a couple soulish-type tunes. I wouldn't go all the way and say they're soul tunes." FNL also recently revisited the Broken Spoke to film a scene that climaxes with a fight in the parking lot. "We've had those before," says Spoke owner James White, who appears as a bartender. "Thank goodness they were back in the Sixties and Seventies."
