Spring Break in Austin means...

Goodness me, has anyone taken a look at the sxsw day shows this week? It seems every year there are more than the year before. I am thinking of just walking out of my front door and see what I bump into - I wouldn't have to walk very far! I am going to take a super laid back approach this year, but there are a few things I have on my free show list and if it happens, it happens:

Militant Babies at Lovejoy's Wednesday
The Ponys at Yard Dog Thursday
Charlie's Holy Happy Hour at Lovejoy's Friday (because he can make me smile and cry in the same set)
Bloodshot Records Party at Yard Dog Friday
Von Iva (Liz Davis, of 7 Year Bitch, is their bassist!) at The Peacock Friday
Rogers Sisters at Ruta Maya Friday
Visqueen at Lucky Lounge Friday
2 Cow Garage at Jovita's Saturday
The Long Winters at Jovita's Saturday
Rogue Wave at Homeslice Pizza (yes!) Saturday
Sonic Boom Records Party at the Longbranch Saturday

It seems the Charles Attal party is going to be down the street from my house at the old hire.com building on Academy...though I'm not on the invite list this year. I've only heard Secret Machines are playing, who I saw a couple years back when Joan Jett played. And did you see that Sleater-Kinney is playing a snooty-patooty invite-only show at the Guerrero Warehouse on E. 6th Tuesday night? It's the film festival closing party. Hmph!

Where are you going to be?
