The guy in the crowd says it all...

Wait a second! It can't be! SXSW is turning against bloggers!

comparing this to punk is complete shit.

I got a good chunk of Wednesday's show on (poor quality droid) video. The links are here: http://dsbigham.net/blog/2010-03-20_dork-dork-dork/

ok,
true or false.. was it really Andrew WK performing at sxsw or was it an impostor? the shit is flyin it wasnt him.. Im trusting it was and it was rumors as was the MF Doom deal...
Secondly.
true or false..
did most of the USA groups cancel the Monterrey todd p festival? again, I heard this..

well, shit hits the fan at sxsw it seems..

No one really mentioned how bad surfer blood were though, which surprises even me...

Some really great photos here. I'd never even heard of 8-bit music before so thanks for enlightening me! Jim.

This 8 bit stuff was done in Minneapolis and elsewhere about 12 years ago. Its a pretty limited genre most times.

long live Glen BraMEHl

these pictures are pretty awful

I went to the Blip festival in NYC last year and it was really amazing! the music was amazing and managed to sound very versatile, even thought it was based on the same gadgets.
The energy of the people was super great, and I really wish more people knew about this in NYC. Glad its getting more press and those people are getting more exposure.
I'm pretty sure the next Aphex Twin is gonna spring from this place.

o hai guys, we traveled all the way to Austin to hang with br0z from brooklyn

Don't listen to this guy, he's drunk

Does anybody know if any of these bands are based in the Bay Area?? Please let me know. I am booking something and interested in connecting with some of these folks (especially those that brought the party!). Thanks.

scotty - trash80 is the shit, think its from aruond there

8 bit music i really cool!
I still remember some music from my childhood - like Mario, Battle City.

Also SEGA had 8 bit music - so the best music is in Comix Zone

I don't like so much 8 bit music, but i like very much the photos! They are so amazing! People seem to feel very happy on this event.

if you have an old browswer, the redesign doesn't allow for easy viewing. all text gets shifted to the left and overflows on the green gradient.

thx alot

How can a band with the word in their name be allowed to play in a library. Really am I missing something? If I started a band named CUNT could we play a library? Or even get ANY press? Its so strange to me that overall, the word fuck has been relaxed in only a few years...

Looks like Tipper Gore failed.

lol rammstein all you want indeed,
it was the greatest rock circus ever seen
around here.
no american or british band put such a production on.
10 years in the waiting, that was an amazing show!
and coming from a veteran like myself, you better believe it.

The 'celebration of 8-bit music" took place on March 16th & 17th at the Highball in Austin. Leia was there on the 2nd day which was also the first night of SXSW Music. More of her pictures from the show (and the full lineup) is below...

dont hate cause you didnt participate

There're men who are ready to rid of your writing stress. I have used their services and orders were clear from plagiarism. Once there was suspension of the essay for 1 day and I complained to their support. They gave me discount of 50% for next essay and there were no problems afterwards. So, make an attempt yourself, buy English literature essay and be happy because of high academic results.

Wow! Truly a awesome post, I love the vivid imagery of the stories he tells. But my remark is such: there are other serious business to do than study. And if you agree with me than you should try to buy Contrast essay on your own. This is what really captures the essence of a awesome personal blog.
