Hey all. We’re back from SXSW in one piece, and it was amazing. I’ve already faxed in my early bird hotel request form for next year; I plan to be right downtown in the thick of the action. All in all, we racked up 44 bands (well, 40, since we saw a few bands twice) in just over 4 days. Here’s the list, but a full (and really long) writeup of the trip is forthcoming.

    Can I make up a list of 44 reasons why I’m so jealous I could kill you? I’m sure I could find four reasons good enough to use twice.
