it's official.

My last college spring break will be spent volunteering for SXSW in Austin. I'm excited to hear up & coming bands. Many of my current favorite bands have played SXSW previous years.

Take 2006 for example. Artists included:
*Arctic Monkeys
*Jose Gonzales
*Cat Power
*Belle and Sebastian
*Jamie Cullum
*Neko Case
*Nickel Creek
*Of Montreal
...just to name a few.

Downside? I am volunteering 4 nights and am committed to one specific venue, so there will be several shows I'll have to miss out on. But hey, music at the cost of volunteer hours? Beautiful.
