Darn?

Oh no.........I missed the e-blogger SXSW party-uh, I'm being sarcastic! The parties seem a lil ridiculous and get sillier each year.

SXSW 1991 and 1992 were the only festivals I attended. The wristbands were cheap, there was parking and not many lines and I saw more shitty bands than good ones. I wouldn't pay to do that these days because I'm not the typical Austinite or music fan these days. I prefer to forgo the festivals and catch bands I like at a later date. The Fleshtones and The Jicks are coming up.

What I do enjoy during SXSW is how empty the lil towns around Austin are. Perfect time for thrifting. Even the thrift stores in my part of town get forgotten. YAY!

This week I'm totally geeking out to the arrival of raised garden beds and sod for the backyard sanctuary project. I'm all grows up.

Bud Cort will be in town on the 18th!

UGH! Mingering Mike will be at Backspin Records: must check that out. This guy is soooooooooooooooo awesome!
