RiO!B at SXSW – Day 4 (March 19, 2010)
The Rock it Out! Blog’s final day at SXSW was amazing. First of all, I had my SXSW party with the ever amazing website Consequence Of Sound. A stellar lineup including Sweet Apple, The Protomen, Look Mexico, Happy Hollows and more made it an incredible first party for me. I plan on doing it again next year.
I also got the chance to interview Ben Blackwell from Third Man Records and got some new info regarding the second Dead Weather album Sea Of Cowards. You can read more about the album at Antiquiet, TwentyFourBit, CoS and right here on the RiO!B.
The night ended with a raucous (and free) show from Street Sweeper Social Club (Tom Morello and Boots Riley). I’m beyond glad I got to go to SXSW and be a part of it while meeting new friends and seeing great shows and new bands. Already planning SXSW 2011 and I’ve got some big ideas.
