I imagine the South by Southwest festival is like Lollapalooza on crack. It seems like a great chance to see a whole lot of music live and up close for a week straight. Rollo & Grady, a great music blog, has a list of the strangest names of bands that are appearing there:
1.) Star Fucking Hipsters
2.) Methadone Kitty & The Daily Dose
3.) Jesus Makes the Shotgun Sound
4.) Cheeky Cheeky and the Nosebleeds
5.) Tiger! Shit! Tiger! Tiger!
6.) This Bike is a Pipe Bomb
7.) Shilpa Ray and Her Happy Hookers
8.) One Small Step For Landmines
9.) Mt. St. Helens Vietnam Band
10.) Purple Rhinestone Eagle
Talking about SXSW is just an excuse to talk about my new obsession: Jessica Lea Mayfield. Check out her video for We’ve Never Lied, its worth it. I predict big things for her.
