SXSW ‘09: All Music is World Music

Leave a comment

Day 2 (Thursday the 19th) of SXSW Music was spent at Momo’s. The theme was “All Music is World Music“.

Kingman and Jonah: Reggae. Read their story here… interesting stuff. Sadly Jonah was sick and couldn’t sing much but they still put on quite the show. For some reason the bass player was wearing an IDF shirt. I only caught the end of the show because the SXSW organizers, those sons of a mother-less goat, made us stand in line outside for a while even though the bar was far from full.

Café Tacvba at Stubb's in Austin, TX

One of my favorite bands and by far the band I’ve seen live the most (either seven or eight times) played at Stubb’s last Sunday. Almost three hours of high energy music including many songs from their latest albumSiNo.

Good times. I have posted a few photos at The MKX® Photo Gallery and of course you can see the obligatory crappy YouTube webcam videos below (follow the Read More link). Enjoy!
