    SXSW 2024

    weather is not looking promising for the rest of the week.
  2. saw plenty of concerts there and the sound sucked for every single one of them. won't miss it at all. moody is a massive improvement.

    SXSW 2024

    found this, it has a decent list and is sligtly easier to navigate than the chronicle website. https://sidebysideshows.com/

    SXSW 2024

    y'all got anything better than the chronicle's list of day parties? feel like there used to be a bunch of websites that listed the day shows but now it's pretty much just the chronicle. https://www.austinchronicle.com/sxsw/unofficial/
  5. I'll be going to the portland show and both nights of msg. pretty pumped about msg.

    casual fan and that's pretty damn good.

    SXSW 2024

    feel like more and more places are doing the all day thing where they don't announce the set times until the day before (hotel vegas, radio east, far out lounge, etc.). i'm more into hopping around different places than sitting in one spot all day. not many bands that i'm familiar with this year but have found a few that sound promising.

    Guatemala

    San Juan seemed the most touristy of any of the towns around the lake. It was very heavy on shopping, which I wasn't really interested in. The Friday market in Santiago was nuts, so many vendors. Got a pretty sweet Mayan death mask made by an old Mayan man.

    Guatemala

    San Marcos was full of dirty dready foreigner hippies. Like being on phish lot. Not surprisingly it was the dirtiest town we visited. Santiago and San Pedro were my favorites.

    Guatemala

    just got back from 2 nights in antigua and 5 nights on lake atitlan. it was interesting and i enjoyed it, but have no desire to go back. visited san juan, tzununa, san pedro, santiago, san marcos. they all have their unique charm but are essentially very similar. found the food as a whole to be very bland and unexciting. people were extremely friendly and the lake was absolutely beautiful. in antigua they have a jesus parade every sunday during lent that was pretty entertaining to watch. everything was extremely cheap. will upload some pics later...
  11. saw him during sxsw at the back room on riverside in maybe 2001...it's my go to answer for worst concert i've ever seen. he wore a leather jumpsuit that was 5 sizes too small and he couldn't even zip it up in the front. did a leg kick after every solo and flicked a pick into the crowd. it was hilariously bad.

    Burgers

    their ordering system has not treated me well with the just salt modification. 99% of the time they still come out with the shitty seasoning. the only time they get it right is if i order directly from the bartender.

    Burgers

    it's hard to fuck up fries but they manage to do it. sucks because they don't really have any other sides.
  14. That's the mike love show. Brian Wilson isn't part of that.
  15. Who doesn't love a good convenience store metal concert? Sudden Deaf is the band, they were good. Reminded me of the sword. Apparently this place at 29th and Rio Grande does this regularly. The reactions of people stopping in to buy shit were pretty funny.
  16. it's very much still a thing. the last time i went there were a few in our party who insisted drinking the water at restaurants was fine...they were the same ones with massive diarrhea at the end of the trip.
  17. sewing kit, medical kit?
  18. sign up for the neil young archives and they're on sale right now.
  19. Saturday night: Daydream Twins- leaned really heavy into the shoegaze aesthetic. vocals were very buried but the singer seemed alright. they were fine but unremarkable. Alex Maas- i've been liking his more lowkey psychedelic stuff in comparison to the heavier black angels material. i think his voice is well suited for it. this was not one of the more inspired sets i've seen from them but was still enjoyable. really like watching robb kidd on drums.

    Toby Keith RIP

    he is not a legend. confirmed.
  21. i've had too many bad experience to give it another go. crossing my fingers for you folks brave enough to chance it.
  22. i tried a ribeye at 135 for 3 hours last week and it wasn't overcooked, but i also can't say i could tell a difference in the fat rendering.

    Guatemala

    any specific recs in antigua or lake atitlan? will be in both of those places later this month but don't really have anything specific planned. would like to hike one of the volcanos.
