SXSW Music: Day 2 Recap

posted Mar 15, 2008

Another rockin’ day in Austin. No interviews conducted, but I did get to chat with Daniel from Nada Surf and Khaela of The Blow to set up interviews in the future when things are less chaotic. The great news is that Daniel is actually going to do some cooking on the show. I can’t wait.

My day went something like this:

  • Nada Surf acoustic set and nice chat with Daniel
  • Lunch with my friend Alison from the Chicago band Le Concorde. Ran into Tapes ‘n Tapes at the restaurant!
  • A performance by The Blow at the convention center

And the line-up for the night:

  • Phosphorescent with my San Francisco friends
  • The Cowsills (from the ’60s), completely by accident
  • Luke Temple
  • Ran into Britt Daniel eating a piece of pizza after his big show
  • Le Concorde
  • The English Beat (got to use all my ’80s dance moves), ran into Britt again
  • Old 97s (hadn’t seen them in years, and they always put on a great show)

That brought me right up to 2am, and time to recharge for another day.
