As mentioned on t’ other blog, I’ve been going to SXSW this year for the first time. Here’s shows I’ve seen that I liked alotsa:

• Peelander-z - Mad Tiger! Medium Rare!
• Art Brut - I bought their album on eMusic, so I must like them, huh? Nonethless, I am not considering a move to L.A.
• Princess Superstar - Kim likes her alotsa too.
• Soul Position - this was an unexpected treat. Kim and went to Emo’s to see what was happening there. And BAAM! It was RJD2 and Blueprint. “Things Go Better With RJ and AL” indeed! It was fucking awesome. Come April 4th I’ll have to get their album.
• Neko Case - I wanted to see what all the fuss was about, and I sure found out. Neko Case is great!

Today we’re going to Home Slice for something, and I’m sure we’ll take in more day stuff too. The key to late night SXSW enjoyment, once the good music is taken care of, is a 6-8PM nap and a cup of coffee.
