Sxsw 2006

[spa ced]

I just made my hotel reservations for March 15-19 in Austin, TX for SXSW. If you need help with finding a cheap hotel in a good location PM me and i'll give you some info. This will be my 5th consecutive year attending SXSW. I'm a fucking veteran. :P

So anyway, who all is attending this year? Any out of towners coming this year? In the past I've met up with beef curtains, Injektilo, & Mason for a part or all of SXSW.

Okay now to the part where I list all the bands that are playing and I ask for recommendations for maybe some of the up and coming good but as of yet unknown bands. I'm mostly into pop rock, twee, shoegaze, space rock, but i'm also breaking out of the that rigid mold in some ways so don't hesistate to suggest something that doesn't adhere to those confines.
