SXSW week - as usual, I will NOT be listing official SXSW
showcases. You will find them here. I will also not be listing day shows that require badges - SXSW has some listed here.
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. Please try to get me the info in advance. Once Tuesday evening hits, I will probably not be listing any more shows.
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.
A lot of my info comes from donewaiting.com. Please visit them as well!
