It is the last full day of SXSW, and I am starting it off with the Do It To It party this Saturday evening at the Living Room in the W Hotel. There are some good DJs working their magic here. 🙂

SXSW – Mexican American Cultural Center
The rain got the best of me tonight at the Mexican American Cultural Center. The bands were total troopers for enduring the weather. It was still fun, and tomorrow is another day.
SXSW – Make Some Noise
I walked through Rainey Street (appropriately named for tonight’s weather) and went to the Neiman Marcus Make Some Noise party at 78 Rainey Street. It ended quickly after I arrived, but I did get to see the end of the set for Marina and the Diamonds. It was a good start to a very wet evening.
SXSW – Spoon
SXSW – Auditorium Shores
This evening’s SXSW experience was found at Auditorium Shores. I really like the new layout for this park as a concert venue. It was a first class experience. Good job Austin!
SXSW – Try Swedish
Tonight’s SXSW entertainment was supplied by Try Swedish and Threadgill’s down on Riverside. There was plenty of food, drinks, live music, and friendly people from Sweden. My favorite band from Sweden tonight was The Magnettes. They wore all white and rocked the place with their infectious energy and attitude.
Top Austin Model
So, the Whole Foods Market in downtown Austin held a competition for the Top Austin Model this evening. The models were great, the DJ was perfect, and the show was fun. Here are some photos to give you an idea of what went down at this event.
Zilker Kite Festival
The Zilker Kite Festival was weather challenged today. It was still fun to catch the kites, bubbles, people, dogs, and food trailers at Zilker Park. Let’s hope next year is sunny and a bit warmer.
Austin City Hall – The Sights
Austin City Hall is a unique piece of architecture, both inside and out.. Here are some photos from tonight’s wanderings.
Austin City Hall – The People’s Gallery
Today’s mission was to go and enjoy The People’s Gallery at Austin City Hall. From the literature, “Each year the Cultural Arts Division of the Economic Development Department presents the People’s Gallery exhibition, designed to showcase regional artistic endeavors and to encourage public dialogue, understanding, and enjoyment of the visual arts. Since 2005, Austin City Hall has been an annual showcase for works by Austin area artists.” It was super enjoyable to see all of the great artwork on display.
