Why bother getting excited about the lineup? No one outside industry, press and toadies get into the “hot shows”. Going to keep my money this year and stimulate the economy elsewhere.

What’s really scary is Willie and Dolly are the same age.

For ease of perusal, I’ve pulled out all the Austin bands and pasted them below. An impressive 10% of the bands are from Austin, from the usual suspects (what would a SXSW be without another appearance by Asylum Street Spankers, Marcia Ball, Alejandro Escovedo, Fastball, Guy Forsyth, David Garza, etc, etc) to a LOT of bands I’ve never heard of with witty names that immediately make you go, “I wonder who they know/are dating/are related to at the Chronicle?”: Alpha Rev (Austin TX) Amplified Heat (Austin TX) Asylum Street Spankers (Austin TX) At All Cost (Austin TX) Awesome Cool Dudes (Austin TX) The Bad Rackets (Austin TX Marcia Ball (Austin TX) The Band of Heathens (Austin TX) Bellaparker (Austin TX) The Belleville Outfit (Austin TX) Ryan Bingham (Austin TX) Scott H.

Dolly is 62 and Willie is 74. Same age? No, but both are eligible for Social Security.

I wonder how many fools will stow away on an airliner this year. I’ll take a show with the Derailers or Joe Ely over the hype of SXSW any day.
