I gotta be honest I’m still burnt out from SXSW to really come up with something witty today. All those bands, all those panels, all those parties – it was exhausting.
Oh wait I wasn’t in Austin, but it kind of felt like it from the wall to wall coverage detailing every second of the action. Since there are pages and pages of blog posts on the festivities I’ll point you in the direction of Muzzle Of Bees who do a nice job of streamlining their coverage into one tidy wrap-up of their favorite moments. Why read 100 posts when you can read one?

- Be the first kid on your block to be talking about The Dodos

- Feeling nostalgic for 2001? Check out this live show from The Strokes
