Love these poster designs for God Don't Like It shows.
You need this in your life. An amazing album in an amazing repackaged red vinylgasm.
The new Adam Stafford album is quite something. Get the glorious yellow cassette now.
Up With People. I've never seen this before and it brought a huge smile to my face. (via Matthew)

This year's SXSW was different in a few ways. First, I was only officially attending the Music portion this year for the first time in 4 years. Secondly, the wife was joining me for the first time. As the festival/conference/whatever seems to grow every year, the wide eyed enjoyment has yet to wain. The stupid amount of amazing bands to see, the drinking, the eating, and hanging out in a city I adore, in venues and bars I adore is still as fun as it's always been. The crew has grown quite a bit, which makes plans difficult to execute, but that's probably part of the fun.
I finally got my photos uploaded to Flickr.
I thought I'd mention the bands I saw that I really enjoyed (there a quite a few) and I urge you to check some of them out if your taste falls anywhere near mine. I won't bore you with reviews or any of that nonsense. Just follow the links and enjoy some amazing music. Some are completely new to me, some I like but had never seen, and some are old favourites.

The New Stereo Mixtape - January 2011 by nonimage
A rough mixtape I made of a some 7”s. Some are new, some just new to me. Straight from turntables, no real ‘mixing’. A bit off the cuff, and the first time I’ve done this in a long time. All to celebrate finally getting a stereo and turntable(s) set up in the ‘office’.

- Les Savy Fav - What Would Wolves Do?
- Banjo or Freakout - 105

- FOUND - Something Under The Bed Is Drooling
- Yuck - Georgia
If you like something on there, go and buy it.
