I Wanna Be A Temporary Texan

That (the place in the picture to the left by Bryan Schutmaat) would be the best venue ever, except for the possibility of horrible sound quality (depending on the amps and shit). best dance party ever... but, one must insure that things don't get crazy, and this happens:



okay, this post was originally going to be a "who to see at SXSW" post. Then I was side tracked, so I was going to turn it into a "who I would have seen at SXSW." Now, because of my slackerness, I'm just going to give up and post what I have, which is a list with a few links, and a lot of names. I will be posting a live set and a review of two shows within the next week, and would just like to forget about this whole mess of a blog Oh, and the awesome fella at Cause=Time (he seriosuly updates almost daily. that is nigh un-top-able) caught Kiyomi and I in our Denver excapades at the Hot IQs/Thermals show a few nights ago. check this shit out. Kiyomi and I are in the bottom picture. Anyway, here is the blog:

Speaking of dance parties, I just thought I'd do a small blog detailing who I would have seen at SXSW this year if I'd've been able to go (stupid no money and school getting in the way).

Here they are in 2 sections, in alphabetical order. 1st section being bands I would have seen that are from Denver or the surrounding cities in CO, 2nd being other bands I would have seen,.
