i'll be in Austin for spring break and i looked at the SXSW schedule and it was actual garbage
a few good acts like Mercury Rev, Faust, and Mike Watt, and so much garbage and trash and shit
I thought this was supposed to be an amazing festival but it's just garbage bandcamp indie trash
no idea how this festival got so big

OP here.
I've looked at previous years and they were significantly more impressive. I'm actually really bummed I didn't go before this because yea so far the band's going are underwhelming.
I'm luckily not paying for any of this trip so that's nice.

Goddamn it, I always forget about SXSW. Fuck, I was gonna try again this year, but Ive got to work all week and I'm broke. Go see some good music for me.
is car seat headrest worth seeing?
anybody got some insider information about whether sound toys are doing a free plugin this year for sxsw?

There's lots of local talents tearing it up. Go out and look for music. I've seen 4 awesome bands play and I've only been downtown for no more than 4 hours between yesterday and today.
