SXSW keynoter Lou Reed is not scheduled to play the fest, but the word from a top-secret source is that he’ll play Thursday with an Austin band. We know he’s a big fan of Okkervil River, but their only official show is at the Austin Music Awards with Roky Erickson. Best bet is Reed acolyte Alejandro Escovedo, who’s playing 10;30 p.m. at Stubb’s on Thursday.

Also, wonder if Sweet Lou will turn up for the “Berlin” party on Thursday afternoon at 204 E. 4th St.? Acts such as Joseph Arthur are doing Reed covers.
