SXSW 2008

So it's actually the last day of SXSW, and it may seem like I've been ignoring my blog, but in actuality I've just been busy blogging for my other website HowWasTheShow.com. It's been crazy here in Austin. I have only slight feeling left in my feet and my brain works about 1/3 of the time. However, I've gotten to see some great shows and I'm really enjoying myself. The 85 degree weather doesn't hurt either.

Please check out my audio (!) and text blogs (and photos...) HERE and HERE

Here's a few select photos from SXSW 2008:

I believe this one explains itself

Locksley is Coming! Locksley is Coming!

Thanks to Jake from Transmission, it's pretty much confirmed that Locksley will hit our fair city on June 16 at the Triple Rock. That's all the detail I know right now, but after the Stone Arch Festival you will all want to jet on over to the T-Rock.

I've been waiting for these boys to head back to the Midwest (they're originally from Madison, WI) after their move to Brooklyn a few years ago. Their newest CD 'Don't Make Me Wait' is a rollicking funfest of Beatles-esque dance tunes. Your feet WILL move. You will be helpless. Don't believe me? Check out this video of Locksley playing the first track off their album, "Don't Make Me Wait," on Jimmy Kimmel Live:



Also, check out some of my pics of Locksley playing at this year's SXSW:









If you don't have a concert calendar right now, you'd better start one. Enjoy!
