Spring Break has sadly come to an end and I am starting to get back into my normal routine of being a student (but lacking when it comes to my blog). I am stuck reliving the good times I had during that week in my head. SXSW was the best part of my spring break for sure. If you have never been to the festival you’re definitely missing out.
Austin is unlike every other part of
Texas for sure.
Dallas and
Denton can compare to it, but
Austin surpasses them in all forms of enjoyment. The city is just jam packed with bars restaurants. The number of bars there are in
Austin is the equivalent to the number of casinos in
Las Vegas. Friday I went to the I
Heart Comix! vs
Mad Decent party. This party was so sick! From the free Dewars scotch mixed with ginger ale, actually surprisingly tasty, to the music, and everything in between.
Simian Mobile Disco played a stellar set that night. A lot better one than I saw them play the following Saturday night.
Diplo went off, although it only seemed like for 30 minutes. Luckily I had the chance to meet him after the show. Diplo was an incredibly chill guy, unlike JFK from
MSTRKRFT who I met Saturday night and acted like a total douchebag. Saturday was awesome as well. I went to the Scion party at Stubbs BBQ. The vibe there was great.
Digitalism played an impressive set followed by one hell of a performance by
Chromeo. I can not wait to see Chromeo again at Coachella. Saturday we went to the party at VICE. The DJ sets were mainly hard electro. It was my first time to see
the Bloody Beetroots. I was really impressed with their skills and showmanship. I don’t know how these guys play with those spiderman mask on. How are they supposed to smoke and drink? In the end, I would say SXSW was probably one of the funnest music festivals I have been to right next to Coachella.
