Anyway, for the best party list around, click over to Sperry Media SXSW 2013 Party List. As for those of you who wrote in asking for The Spreadsheet, thanks for the…

SXSW 2012

A funny thing has happened to SXSW, which I started to write about in last year’s SXSW wrap-up post: it has tipped. That is, it is no longer a little festival for the geeks of three respective industries, it’s a destination festival for an unheard-of combination of (startup) companies, corporations, and consumers (aka Spring Breakers). There’s…

Austin & Aspen: Oscar Watch Parties

I’ve gone Oscar-crazy over at EndlessBeauty.com, telling you how to throw your own party, but for the local effect in Austin, stop by J. Black’s for a Moet & Chandon-sponsored party … … and if you have $160 to spend on the Oscars, check out the Aspen Film party at The Viceroy in Snowmass:

Austin: Superbowl Parties at Bars

If you don’t have a house to throw a party at or to go to, join many other drunken revelers and football fans at these five hotspots for Superbowl-watchin’ action.

Austin: New Year’s Eve Start to Finish

Ah, the start of a new year. If you don’t have plans already, don’t fret, Austin is totally a cool town to be plan-less in. Aspen, not so much. Where did my Caribou Club membership card run off to? Anyway, here are my suggestions: Pre-Party: From 4-7pm, let Lovely Austin Boutique help you get ready…

Aspen: Pray for Snow Party in Snowmass

Because nothing in Aspen is ever online, I had to snap an iPhone pic of the event poster: I know little more than what the poster tells you: Base Camp Bar & Grill is apparently opening under new management with a bang, serving FREE BEER and live music for the price of a canned good.…
