SXSW was a blast. The crowd was enthusiastic, the food was savory (thank you Pita Pit), and discovering new music in a live setting is definitely preferred over a computer screen. I’d just like to give a HUGE thank you to everyone who took the time to come out, we never expected to reach capacity so quickly! Also, an equal in size thank you goes out to Sneak Attack Media, Tierra Productions, UV Vodka and Hi-Lo for sponsoring the event as well as Honey Claws, Ninjasonik, TheDeathSet, The Hood Internet, DD/MM/YYYY, Fol Chen, Rumspringa, Cerebral Ballzy, The Hungry Villagers, Madi Diaz, and Reverse X Rays for playing. Big apologies to those of you who came out for Youth Group on Thursday, hopefully you were able to catch them at the Australian music showcase.

Car jams are essential when roadtrippin’, synchronized dancing is not. Randy and Cameron can certainly pull it off though.
An hour into the festival and Cisco Adler (of Shwayze fame) is already giving FMLY the finger. If this means nothing to you, that finger has been inside of Paris Hilton and Mischa Barton…straight up pop culture!
The heat was sick, a beer break with some of our favorite Midnight Ridahzz was necessary.
While beer breaking we saw a couple of girls rolling a joint on our flyer. It was a necessary photo.
Here are the Elevaters opening night one. This is the only photo we have for this night, our camera seemed to disappear.
What’s up Hood Internet!?
There was a line of folks going down the block trying to get in after we hit capacity. Now they’re part of our history.
Cameron accidentally killed the guitarist from DD/MM/YYYY, we’re still trying to work this one out with the Canadian government.
Cameron and Randy hard at work.
Honey Claws doin’ it big!
Rev McFly (Ninjasonik) and Jake (PopGun) showing mad love.
Telli Gramz and Jah aka Rev McFly aka New Dirty Bastard of Ninjasonik going double dragons on the crowd.
Ninjasonik brought back the go-go.
Cerebral Ballzy kickin’ it in the audience.
Again, thanks to everyone who came, played, or wish that they could have been there. I’m sure that pictures are floating around the internet, but I’m not too skilled at finding them.
