SXSW

Can't make it to South By but wishing you could get in on the action. NPR has hosted numerous concerts and many of them are available for video and audio stream at their website. Some notables include Surfer Blood, Broken Bells, and Spoon. It's the best way to be here without being here. I visited the PASTE magazine party yesterday and caught Free Energy and Joe Pug. Both were impressive. Free Energy, which was produced by LCD Soundsystem's James Murphy, was great for the fact that I really didn't have any preconceived notions, and Joe Pug because he lived up to what I expected. Adam is here with Dead Gaze and I am sure will have some news coming in soon.
