We’re seasoned vets when it comes to SXSW. For the last 6 years, we’ve been at the festival to some capacity, regardless of how drunk we got or how bad our allergies were. And while last year’s festival left us jaded and hesitant of the crowds, we headed to Austin for a few days to engage in whatever came our way.
Review after the jump.

who’s putting out cooler videos on the internet, yall? my frands in the niceguys played 6 shows in 5 days this year at sxsw, and amongst the whole ‘winning’ thing, the boys did a hell of a job promoting. they passed out copies of their new single, “overtoast” – which you can buy here. they also had stickers, and this neat impromptu street performance, with jack freeman, lee lonn and nick greer.
james kelley coming soon. and for those of you in houston, the group has a FREE show this friday at the university of houston. more info here.

my man brando from d&ad, in conjunction with t. piper media were on hand to witness nasty nas in all of his illmatic glory. while i completely disregard them and hate them forever for getting to see this, these videos are quite nice. one-two punch of “hate me now” and “one mic” below the cut.

we’ve already pointed you to fiona apple’s debut performance of “every single night” at sxsw. here we’ve got another piano based slow-build, the off-kilter “valentine.” the clip is shot from apple’s profile, which makes the star of the show, in my opinion, her ponytail. very barbara eden. check it ou above.

god damn. fiona is back, y’all. and she’s still got it. here we have a crowd-collected video ms. apple performing a fantastic new number by the name of “every single night,” due on her upcoming album the title is too long and i will never type it out.
and if you’re into the thing, read pitchfork’s recap of the night’s events.

the premiere event of sxsw was this here sync show from the jigga man. it was a largely interactive experience, with sync’d twitter accounts, hashtag sound requests and too much swag for most of sxsw to handle. that’s code for “the crowd sucked.”
