SXSW Day 2

On Day 2 of the SXSW festival, the day started after I desperately tried to cure my hangover from the night before, it didn't help that I spend the whole morning running around the American Apparel Flea Market Sale running through boxes to bring presents to my friends back at home, but failed miserably; however I'm a professional so I decided to toughen up and head to the Waterloo Park to the "Mess with Texas Party", some of the headliners there included Kid Sister, The Black Lips , and Akron Family to name but a few. To be honest with you I didn't care much about what I saw, specially for Kid Sister, in my opinion she is just as fake as Kanye West who was at the festival but I intentionally proceeded to ignore and succeeded. The only thing that called my short attention span was The Black Lips who put an amazing adrenaline filled show, with their 1970 Rock and Roll revival music.

After leaving the Waterloo my friend got invited to a house party where some bands where playing (duh! this is Austin), I wasn't expecting to see anything worth my while, but oh, how wrong I was; there I was fortunate enough to see a hair raising show by the Earth People Orchestra, a group from Boston who in unison sing and play an array of instruments, kitchen utensils like pot pans, and toys, the lyrics where touching and so pure that I could not help but drop my mouth wide open.

To finish my SXSW experience I decided head back to the Canvas bar where all my friends from Dallas had united to provide our support to the guys from Vega who played one of the best shows they've ever played, demonstrating that when you make music with friends it can not only be fun but entretaining. That was not the only reason why I decide to go there, the list of performers was amazing, I was able to dance to Miami Horror, Treasure Fingers, Evil Nine, Futurecop!, and Ac Slater to name a few, Wow!!! What else do you want !!!
