I wasn't doing any daily stringer action for South by Southwest this year (I did write this in advance of it), so I was mostly down there to enjoy myself and catch up with Light Asylum for a future article. It was crazy as ever down there; it felt like a Black Friday doorbuster crowd had converged on every Austin corner and in every bar doorway. Now that I've caught my breath and most of the Lone Star has left my bloodstream, I present a partial list of the bands I caught. Right, I don't think this is every band I saw and is in no particular order:
Light Asylum
Snake Rattle Rattle Snake
A. Tom Collins
Wheelchair Sports Camp

Justin Townes Earle
Musketeer Gripweed
Bass Drum of Death
