@thisismymistake that's SXSW boot camp. I mean, only 15 minutes of Speedy Ortiz and Lydia Ainsworth? Forced to choose between Emmy the Great and The Dodos? Mind you, finishing off with Torres at 1.00am in a church sounds pretty heavenly.
@simonp@thisismymistake always useful, as I haven't drilled past the names I don't know yet, my 1st pass is here: http://schedule.sxsw.com/user_events/0c026cd2c8e2ba90bb4d789aa0e03d254bd32106
My final choices on where I go tend to be goverened more by venue and ease of entry for non-badge holders though. I've done well with this method the last few, but there are always the shows you know you'll miss out on. Anyone at the Central Pres, Mohawk, Stubb's etc are usually out of play.
@simonp That's not really a schedule per se, since I'm not going and I don't have to bother about logistics, access, or transportation. It's basically a list of bands I would try to see if I were there, compiled at the request of friends who are going every year and are ooking for pointers. cc @clickysounds

Another classic album closer by The Church.

Now there's a reason to go to SXSW...

@thisismymistake in my initial skim, there were actually fewer reasons than I was hoping for this year. Still have to do the drill though.

@clickysounds As per usual, I did my mock schedule, which might be of interest to you too: http://schedule.sxsw.com/user_events/bf27b3eb2a28382f4c6d4c105642b958820bdc94
