SXSW is too much for one person to report on, and in this event, my patience had worn a bit thin. I was lucky because, two members of the Cause=Time SXSW 2009 Excursion team toughed it out. For those that were there, they endured long booze lines, bathroom lines, and narrow/confined spaces. I was there…

Last Day @ SXSW
We will be wrapping up things today and amid speculation that there will be a Mr. West at Fader today, we will be planning accordingly. I have found my new favorite Mexican restaurant here, the salsa is to die for, and new Asian restaurant?! Random. We ate at Koriente for dinner yesterday and we were…
SXSW Day 2
We are still alive and kicking, but updatese will resume later this weekend, next week, or sometime soon. We met Little Boots somewhere off of 2nd and Guadalupe right after we saw The Pains of Being Pure at Heart. It has been a very swell time and we are only half way done. The scheduling…
Von Bondies ::: Red Eye Fly ::: 03.18.09
In a situation that brought me to Red Eye Fly, we caught the Von Bondies when we thought we would be seeing the Evangelicals. One of the casualties of being at SXSW where schedules get flip flopped faster than the political views of television pundits. I couldn’t hear anything because of my position dead center…
American Princes & Let’s Wrestle ::: Fader Fort ::: SXSW Day 1
American Princes American Princes are a band from Little Rock, Arkansas that got the party started at the very much larger and very improved Fader Fort (if that was possible). Their distortion was a bit overwhelming for me to handle this early in the day. Maybe in the right setting, it could have been a…
SXSW Bound
I will be updating on Twitter as much as possible and have photos for y’all!
Schuba’s SXSW Party

Phish Summer Tour
I hate to tell you so, but, I told you so. Or atleast I heard it from a very reliable source. This happening is one that is thirteen years in the making. It’s been that long. Since that Summer of ’96 when residents of Morrison had enough and decided not to let Phish into their…
Broken Social Scene Covering Joy Division
The title says it all. Two of my all time favorite bands converge on one cover for the upcoming Rachel McAdams movie, the Time Traveler’s Wife (based on the book). The guys do a wedding scene and play the Joy Division cover. (via Playlist)My wife says the book is about a time-traveler who travels back…
