“I hope you Die” is an amazing track.
April 20th can’t come soon enough

We actually intend for the second album to be worse than the first one. Save “room for growth” for Superdrag.

My favorite SXSW moment was seeing No Age last year. Get drunk and have a lot of fun…

Oh Lahd I love BRMC. Saw them a few years ago, and can’t wait to see them again.

My craziest moment of SXSW was my first year attending in 2006. I had just moved to Austin and was walking down Red River by myself around 1am when I noticed a man walking towards me with a guitar case. I noticed a familiar mop of hair and did a double take. “Holy sh**” I said to myself, and the guy with the guitar heard me and looked up. It was Thurston Moore! He was just walking to his car after a gig he played earlier in the evening. We met near the Velvet Spade (now the Mohawk). I really wanted to ask him fan questions but the conversation was all about SXSW and what artists we had seen. We chatted for about 3 minutes or so and it is still one of my favorite encounters of all time.

Stephanie, it sounds like this man obviously roofied and kidnapped you. And then made you dance. What a creepster.

My favorite sxsw moment was seeing Lou Reed at fader party in 2007.

OR seeing some classy ladies get finger blasted by 2 Live Crew on stage. Once again at Fader. Hope I see something similar to that at the ATH Party.

My favorite SXSW moment would have to be ending a 14 hour day of drinking and shows by dancing in some random dude’s living room listening to MSTRKRFT. Don’t even remember how I got there or what his name was…

My craziest moment from SXSW had to be going to the Rachel Ray party to see The Hold Steady, then getting so drunk there that I had to go home before The Hold Steady even took to the stage. I blame you Rachel Ray.

Comment on FT5: Hangover Albums by Jon Goodrich

Yeah, Bon Iver is a good call. Seems like there is a crossover between hangover albums and depressing break up albums.

Seems like a crime not to have any reggae albums on this list. Blame my ignorance for that. I love me KOOP’s Jamaican Gold for Saturday hangovers.

Probably all kinds of R&B I’d go for too. . just about any Motown album would work here.
