Austin, Texas
Stuart Bailie
Late Show Presenter
Welcome to Austin, Texas and to the annual overwhelm that is sxsw. Tens of thousands of film, interactive and music people all roaming the bars, the meet-ups, the Conference Center and every amenable hole in the wall. In the coming days, the festival will host Depeche Mode, Stevie Nicks, Nick Cave, Flaming Lips and a deluge of bearded, narrow-trousered contenders.
Tonight is the American Premiere of Good Vibrations. We’ll be at the Alamo Ritz on 6th Street and then around the corner to the Latitude venue for a Northern Ireland special, featuring Girls Names, Tim Wheeler, Psycatron and maybe the Lost Brothers. Excitement beckons. Please come back often for updates over the coming days.
