daytime or otherwise.
If you know of any, please let me know -
showlistaustin@yahoo.com.

SXSW week - as usual, I will NOT be listing official SXSW showcases. You will find them here, eventually.

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.
