Marina and the Diamonds to play Perez Hilton party
Celeb gossip blogger Perez Hilton announced on his site today that Marina and the Diamonds and Alphabeat will play his closing night party Saturday at a warehouse near the corner of Brazos and Third Streets. More acts will be announced later.

One party that is off, according to Shangri-La’s Tyler Van Aken, is Wednesday night’s Woxy/Future Sounds Super Rumble. The invite only party was to feature several official SXSW bands (in violation with an agreement bands sign to not compete with official night time showcases). The Woxy parties during the day at Shangri-La on E. Sixth St. are still on.
Rumors are going crazy, but our fave is Snoop Dogg performing with Gorillaz at Seaholm Power Plant (which MTV is renting from the city for $500 a day.) The cartoon band is the subject of a listening party during SXSW.

The Rumble @ SXSW parties presented by Future Sounds are on for all four days. The Wednesday night - Super Rumble - was canceled with that line up of bands, but there is a new group of non-SXSW bands playing that evening at Shangri La. Future Sounds and its partners never intended to violate the SXSW rules and clearly stated it in our messaging, so given this slip of information to the public, we canceled the party that was scheduled so that no artist performing would be put in a bad situation with SXSW.
