We’re gonna be at South by Southwest this year, kickin’ some serious ass and takin’ all kinds of names. We’ll be sending back photos, videos, and reports as much as humanly possible, so stay tuned.
Only two of us will be down there, so we’ll be trying our best to see all the bands we want to see, but that’s pretty much impossible. Below is a list of non-overlapping shows that one or both of us will try to attend, so don’t be surprised if we report back from a bunch of them. Check it:
