SXSW 2012 BLOODSHOT SCHEDULE

BSXSW 2012 It's that time again: South by Southwest, Austin TX, March, music, margaritas, corporate sleaze fests trying to out "indie" each other, zombie-like mobs of insensate spring breakers bumping into clutches of jaded industry insiders, "bloggers" sitting on every curb trying to be the first to talk smack about THE NEXT BIG THING and a thousand broken dreams littering 6th Street. And lots of litter littering 6th Street.

As Mitch Hedberg used to say, handing out fliers on the street is like saying "here, throw this out for me."

Once again, Bloodshot heads down south, shedding layers of flannel along the way and stopping at every plywood sign with the letters B B and Q on them, to bring you parties and showcases and music for your unadulterated enjoyment.

This list will be constantly updated as more parties, appearances times and venue details are confirmed.

Pin this to your shirt so, if you should fall down, passersby can carry you to your next destination. Unless noted, all parties are free to the public. Showcases require badge, wristband, or paying a cover.

Remember to buy a cocktail for any weary BS staffer you might run into down there. We ain't on the clock down there...
