One of my favorite things about SXSW is how you could be leaving one venue for another but get sidetracked because you here something magical over a wired fence or a rock wall. We decided to venture out and check out the beautiful sounds coming from this East 7th venue that looked shabby from the…
Casiokids ::: Peckerheads (Hype/Music Slut Party) ::: SXSW Day 1 ::: 03.18.09
Norwegian kids make good on SXSW trip. The guys could’ve used more cowbell (IMHO), j/k, but they had Peckerheads in a dancing inferno this early in the afternoon. You don’t need a translator for the types of beats they were slinging, and despite some of their vocals being indecipherable, it didn’t matter. Big ups to…
Rachel Ray Party ::: New York Dolls ::: Maggie Maes ::: SXSW 2009
I love the picture of horror below from Rachel Ray. The line to get in was out of this world. It covered several city blocks and wrapped around to Eddie V’s (for those that know Austin). New York Dolls-Pills [mp3] Rachel Ray Party ::: SXSW 2009 from Julio Enriquez on Vimeo. New York Dolls :::…
Kanye West ::: G.O.O.D. RECORDS SHOWCASE ::: FADER FORT ::: SXSW 2009
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
As if we didn’t need another party. This one looks very promising. Schubas’ 13th Annual SXSW Round-Up Thursday, March 19, 2009 Yard Dog 1510 S Congress Austin, TX First we were, then we weren’t, then we were, then we weren’t, and NOW WE ARE! If you’re going to SXSW, you’d be crazy not to swing…
