SXSW Music and Movies (Mon. & Tues.)

So SXSW has descended upon the lovely city of Austin and turned it into a flooded metropolis exploding with culture, debauchery, and crazy adventures.

Monday a friend and I explored Club DeVille and Mohawk downtown and caught some wonderful shows!

Orthy live at Club Deville, they are also a stellar DJ band that goes by Learning Secrets.

Japandroids live at MOHAWK

They apparently has just flown in from Brazil and went absolutely insane on stage!
