    Thanks for the travel tips re: flying into Houston. it could work... i have a credit voucher on Continental.

    I'll look into the other Southwest options as well.

    I will be there, and am only attending a couple of events, so might be willing to share my wrist band.

    I need to review the schedule this weekend to see what I want to get to....

    Right now, I am hungover in San Francisco about to go to the GDC booth and lose my voice.

    :)

    As the man said.....Saturday, Auditorium Shores :grin:

    I'm totally going to see GWAR since I have never seen them. They're going to "sacrifice" one of the bands live on stage. Awesomeness!

    Gwar is the one of the greatest acts to see live. Being part of the mosh pit while being sprayed with fake blood and multi color slime by Oderus and his minions is really fun. Already RSVP and can't wait.

    They're going to "sacrifice" one of the other bands on stage. 3 more days til the carnage begins!

    Although it was not an official SXSW show, last night I saw Motorhead and my favorite Austin band, The Sword at Stubbs. GREAT show!
