I'm sitting on a Greyhound headed out to the West Coast at the moment, this can only mean one thing…
SXSW 2009 is over 🙁
Wow, what a year. The last day of the festival was very relaxed for me. I initially intended to go to Rachael Ray's party all day to see Semi Precious Weapons, Airbourne Toxic Event and New York Dolls… That plan got completely changed when word of the Mojo BBQ appeared announcing another Hot Leg set. Also while at Mojo I saw a band called Sheerwater that was superb. Great musicianship! Following Mojo it was time for official showcases where the only sets worth noting I previously posted sans another Hot Leg set (which turned out to be the best set of all three… Amazing energy)!
