SXSW

Anyone in the Texas surrounding area knows about South by Southwest. It's a music/movie/internetsandbooks festival that lasts for about a week and then some and it all goes down in Austin, Texas. The music festival starts tomorrow (Wednesday) and we've compiled a list of day and night shows that might be worth your time. There's still tons of others we haven't listed due to lack of information (or just lack of not knowing,) so if there's anything we've left out that you believe to be worthy, leave us a comment. We'll update and post something up about it. :) ~ Serena
