I am very jealous. though I did grow up in texas, I have never been. (mostly due to living in savannah, ga for the last 5 years.) I think ill go there or ACL in the future.

SXSW is on the top ten “things I must experience” list. Having just started my first “proper” job I guess now’s the time to start saving for next year. I can’t even imagine the sound of the streets! Oh and Heather for your love for the auld scottish band or two, have you checked out Broken Records? Edinburgh based band I just love. I recon “Slow Parade” will get you big time! When they play live they have a mid song pause and it just knocks you for six.

j-roddy and the biz was easily one of the highlights of my SXSW (even though i’ve seen them a lot in the first place). those dudes never — never — disappoint.

and i think TUS doing a half acoustic set might have been my favorite part of my day party, too. where all did you see them?

it was indeed a good SXSW.

interesting question, rollerpimp, which made me go back and re-read all the press materials from the new album, and it’s just not being marketed at all as a christian album. i don’t know anything about her personal journey or where she’s at with the previous roads her music trolled, but the closest the press release gets is referring to “her astonishing straightforwardness and spirituality.” so i don’t know! excellent point.

Great that you got to see Jennifer Knapp but I have a question. What makes you think that she has gone away from church? Did she say something during the concert? She is touring with the great Derek Webb who does Christian music that is thought provoking and inspiring. I am definitely looking forward to her next album.

So much to choose from, sorry you missed Grace Potter and the Nocturnals. Great songs on their new album due in June.
