We don't know about where you are, but it seems like spring can't decide whether or not to happen. Some days are warm, some days are cold, and sometimes you aren't sure which. Baseball may have started up (and soccer/football winding down) but it still seems cold out there. Unless it's not. Anyways, onto the -ists. Austinist happily anticipated fall's Austin City Limits, even though they're not fully recovered from South By Southwest. In......

(AKA The It doesn't feel like Friday and we're still hungover from SXSW edition) NY indie institutions hold it down @ SXSW Last weekend wrapped up South By Southwest, and the final day of festivities focused around the NY2LON day party, which was the collaboration of +1 Management, Brooklyn Vegan and Le Tigre. The stacked lineup was unfortunately without top draw Amy Winehouse, who had to pull out of several recent performances, but featured sets......

Of Montreal Are Truly Amazing We've been down in Austin for South By SouthWest for most of the last week, but before taking off, we caught one of the most enjoyable shows we've seen all year in Of Montreal at Irving Plaza. For those who claim the show was boring, we don't know what they would have to do to satisfy you. There were costume changes, songs performed oh the shoulders of mustachioed, white......

In March, much of the city will migrate to Austin, Texas for another SXSW (or, as we've learned to call it over the past few years: South By). This year we're hosting another day party with Austinist, and for the first time we've joined forces with another blog: Gorilla vs Bear! After months of working on this, we're all happy to announce our show. It will be on Wednesday March 14th at Mohawk (912 Red......

Day 1 was long, but we managed to get a few hours of sleep and gear up for the rest of week. Last Thursday we started off our day at the South By Stereogum party. Brisket on white bread was served, Fat Tire beers were distributed and Aziz Ansari was hosting the show, which had a solid lineup: Aloha, What Made Milwaukee Famous, Thunderbirds Are Now!, Rogue Wave and Ted Leo. Thunderbirds Are Now! [pictured]......

Here it is, our last piece of SXSW coverage. The warm sun has snuck out of our skin and we can barely taste the frozen avocado margaritas anymore, so for anything Austin related in the future you'll have to go here. The Cloud Room let you read all about their experience at South By, and now The National, a band we've recently been listening to more and more, opens up their diary to you. They......

Gothamist returned from Austin last night and headed straight to the Mercury Lounge for the Go! Team (who were fun - but not as good live as on their album). Needless to say we are tired, exhausted and sad to not be wearing flip flops and tank tops anymore. While down at South By (as the locals call it) we caught Fractious, The Prix, Idlewild, MC Chris and Maximo Park at the aforementioned party which......
