SxSW: A Blur!!!
After rolling through that tight gas station and getting lost, we finally arrived in Austin for a week of craziness with the Indy bands of the world:
After getting stuck in some killer Austin traffic(who knew they had traffic in Austin, TX). We arrived at the Austin Convention center for South by South West.
Once we were there the week seemed to blow by. I did a really poor job of documenting this week, but I’ve got a few highlights.
This is perhaps on the best things that happened while we where there:
I don’t know if you can tell, but that man wearing the brown shirt behind the protest sign is good old Phil, laying down the Fuze law and kicking Rockstar out of the town. Thats right get out Rockstar, Fuze is up in this place!!
We did a lot of stuff down on 6th Street after all it was only 3 blocks away from out hotel.
The rest of the time we spent down at Town Lake:
A view from a little higher…
I couldn’t tell you the bands that played, but the ones that I heard kick some ass.
And then there was this little beauty:
Now there is something that was a little bit wrong with this van. Why on earth would there be an out of service sign on a black conversion van? I don’t know why…. It just seems a bit off. I’ll leave you to draw your own conlusions.
That pretty pretty much sums up SxSW except for the part where we got delayed in Houston while Atlanta was being destroyed by Tornado’s.
