We’re having an awesome time at SXSW. The sun is shining and we’re dead tired from playing, partying and sleeping to little.
Last night we did our first official showcase at St Davids Hustoric Sanctuary, right before Suzanne Vega. It was a really cool venue but what’s up with all the church gigs on this tour? Is someone trying to tell me I should start playing Christian music? 😉
I actually got to hang out a little with Suzanne Vega and her band after her great gig, and managed to get a pic too.
Joakim did his yearly SXSW dance at the artist lounge after dark and everyone was happy. (video)
Today we’re really tired after getting up early to do a showcase at noon. It might not sound early but with the traffic which is just crazy we had to get going at 9 from the hotel this morning. The gig was great though. It was hosted by Mike Galaxy at Guero’s Taco Bar, outside in the sun. Next to the venue there was a really cool store with cowboy boots. I especially loved the “Gringo” ones but I’m a poor musician and can’t afford $500 boots:-(
Right now we’re curled up in the artist lounge at ACC waiting for our next gig on Little fields roof top at 6th and Brazos where we’re playing at 7.30.
Don’t forget to check my gig schedule here if you want to catch some more of my showcases here at SXSW.
