Right now over one thousand bands are descending on Austin, TX's downtown for the music festival known as SXSW. For Philistines, this means South by Southwest.
One year from now, I will walk down the street to hear some fantastic music.
Six months from now, Austin City Limits will throw its festival. Rumored acts include heavyweights like Radiohead, Wilco, Sufjan Stevens, The Hold Steady, The Arcade Fire, Ryan Adams, Buddy Guy, Neil Young, Bob Dylan, Death Cab for Cutie, and Belle and Sebastien, not to mention lesser known acts like Midlake, the Good the Bad and the Queen, and others.
In one year, I am going to be even more of a music snob than I can be sometimes now. Some people might think all of this music euphoria is a waste of time. I call it...engaging culture.
