I felt a bit better today as I walked
around Austin. I'd like to thank the good people at Waterloo Ice House
for hooking it up with the chicken friend steak and eggs.
- I
heard a deal go down for some fine “South of the border nose candy”
(these were the words used) on an iPhone. The business was conducted by a
girl who ten minutes prior, was flipping out because she couldn't get
right into the Fader Fort.
- Human Eye bailed on the Brooklyn Vegan
party. This bummed me the fuck out. Turns out they bailed on SXSW as a
whole.
- Everybody was in the French Resistance Now played the
Brooklyn Vegan party. I'd like to go ahead and send a big fuck you to
that band for having what is the worst band name in the history of band
names. I don't care if you sound better than Exile on Main St.,
I'm boycotting you forever just because of your stupid name.
- Speaking
of boycotts: boycotting the Israeli Consulate showcase ='s retarded.
Haven't you seen Bill & Ted? Music heals all wounds.
- Friend
who saw Frankie and the Outs: “They are the only good girl group I've
seen so far.”
- I popped into a bar on 6th to watch a little NCAA.
Dudes were talking about The Antlers. Bros, I love weepcore as much as
the next sad bastard, but I WANTED TO WATCH ALL THE UPSETS! However,
kudos to the drunk Mexcian man who played “Midnight Rider” on the
jukebox and tried his best to sing along.
- I saw So So Glos
walking around. I waved to them while I was drunk. Wanted to yell
out “go back to Bushwick assholes,” but didn't.
- I hung out with
Israeli DJ crew Soulico. You might remember them as the dudes who
popped that Zionist pussy a few months back.
- Right now, if
reports are correct, Thee Oh Sees are officially the best band at SXSW.
