We're pleased as punch to be involved as a sponsor for this remarkable SXSW showcase of Portland talent, taking place at the Red Eyed Fly on Thursday, March 19th. While hardly the only evening of Portland bands at the Shiner-soaked music festival that is SXSW, this showcase represents an excellent selection of performers that we can all be proud of. If you find yourself in Austin for the festival, please stop by.

Also, this venue is mere feet away from the Chuggin' Monkey ("Live Free, Play Hard." OMG, that is totally my personal mantra!), so after the show get ready to toss back a few rounds of Jägerbombs with every single one of the bands!

Wooooo, SXSW!!!

Is a Mercury writer going in your stead this year, or are you healing like a champ?

FYI - a friend of mine in Austin broke her ankle bigtime in a moshpit at Emos last month. So beware!

We'll have a few writers at the fest—team coverage!—but sadly I will not be one of them. At least there won't be any moshing injuries.
