Volsung = Metallica @ SXSW?
"In Norse mythology, Völsung was murdered by the Geatish king Siggeir and avenged by one of his sons, Sigmund and his daughter Signy who was married to Siggeir. Völsung was the common ancestor of the ill-fortuned clan of the Volsungs, including the greatest of Norse heroes, Sigurd. Their legend is known in Norse myth through Volsungasaga and Dráp Niflunga and in Old German through the Nibelungenlied.The above picture is a screenshot of SXSW's recently updated Stubb's schedule. Friday is now the "Guitar Hero Metallica" showcase and "Volsung" from "Somewhere, Norway" is playing at 10:30 pm.In the English epic Beowulf, when the Geatish warrior Beowulf has killed Grendel, a Danish bard at Hrothgar's court sings about Sigmund and his father Waels." [Wikipedia]
PREVIOUSLY: Metallica playing SXSW??
P.S. Katy Perry has vanished from the Stubb's schedule, thus removing the (not)awesomeness that was Katy playing back to back with the Meat Puppets.

Glad I saw them in the 90 somethings.
I want some Heaven & Hell. That would be tight if that is the Scion Thurs @ Stubb's.
I am dying to know that one.

"Scion Thurs @ Stubb's"
What makes you think there will be a Scion Thursday at Stubb's this year?

I snuck in to see Metallica. I'm not proud of it. I made it to the third row center. Metallica's T-Shirts did not have Nike logos, which was disappointing. Now I don't know what type of sportswear is cool and metal.
