South by So Far

Not much to report yet as far as official SXSW happenings. The kickoff party on Friday night at Buffalo Billards (Bar #5, although I haven’t actually blogged about #4 yet) was highlighted by free beer and roller derby girls. The lone film I’ve seen so far was a fake Wes Anderson movie called Max and Grace. The out-of-town representative from the Ol’ Bait Shop arrived Saturday night. Sunday was rodeo day! Alas, we didn’t get to see the high-diving pig or the cowboy monkey, but the cattle-herding dogs were in fine form. I think I’m going to enter Maury in next year’s competition. This could be his calling.
