I have a room at the Omni, do you have 30 minutes? Or a younger sister?
SXSW is in town and you can't swing a dead cat without hitting either a hipster, someone who claims to be a music producer, a musician, or someone willing to sell you a pocket full of sweet dreams.
All I know is the restaurants and bars are packed all hours of the day and night and no one has even offered to introduce me to Stevie Nicks so I can ask her to run away with me. There is some punk ass band in town called Steve E. Nix, though. I will not see them play.
One up side is the increase of blonde manes and fishnet stockings seen downtown. I think just as many come for a chance at new sex as for the music and films. There are many young healthy looking kids in town. You can almost smell the tension in the air as they size each other up and ask "Which hotel are you staying at?"
I can hear hearts breaking and rashes breaking out and the sun has not even gone down yet. Thank God this only lasts ten days.
