If you have an extra 300.00...
and don't mind walking for miles to get to a venue...then SXSW is right up your dirty alley.
Here is the schedule for this year. It's in Austin...music capital of the universe or whatever.
For the amount of 300 dollars (if I'm not mistaken) you can get a wrist band to go see unlimited shows, that is unless of course the venue is not at full capacity or a riot breaks out over Julien Lennon throwing his belt into the crowd.
I went a two years ago and bumped into Jason Lee , that was fun.
The absolute best thing about South x south west is FLATSTOCK. This is held in the austin convention center downtown with concert Poster artists from around the world selling posters, art prints, SWAG. Check out the link I have for Gigposters.com to get more information. The last SXSW i went to i parked on 5th for free, walked to sixth street and saw Flogging Molly for free from the street (they played Emo's outdoor stage). A fight broke out and the paddy wagon showed up. it was good. I was with Karin, Mig, Gabel while young Max was off with friends. good memories. psssst flatstock is free.
