SXSW week - as usual, I will NOT be listing official SXSW

I will try to find out as much as possible about other shows going on,
daytime or otherwise.
If you know of any, please let me know -
showlistaustin@yahoo.com.
Most of the day shows are free - just because I don't mark one as free
doesn't mean it's not, it just means I don't know one way or the other.
