SXSW Recap March 19, 2008
Posted by Nicole at March 19, 2008 2:14 PM | Permalink | Comments ( 7 ) | TrackBackHello all! So last week Lara and I spent our time in the ultra relaxing Austin, Texas, for the super low-key and laid-back SXSW festival. Sense a bit of sarcasm there, folks? Wow what a crazy week...what a crazy week indeed!
We co-hosted a party with our good friends over at Victory Records and I was able to catch up with The Audition and Between The Buried And Me, who both played the party.

I also got to meet up with the darling Shawn, from The Matches, for a scrumptious little vegan dinner. The Matches have just released a brand new album, A Band In Hope, so be sure to check it out!

I also got to catch up with the sweetie Pouyan from SKSK, this year's winner of the "Best Newcomer" Libby Award. Wow do those guys put on one of hell of a live show!

So that, m'dears, is just a brief recap of some of the brouhaha that went down in Austin. Oh wait, there is one more pic I want to share:

Cheers!

P.S. Shawn was sweet enough to sign a copy of A Band In Hope for one of you lucky little devils. So comment below with an oh-so-clever caption for my pic with Oscar Mayer for your chance to win the signed CD! The contest ends April 4 and a winner will be notified by April 11.
