I’m in Houston for Beer Bike, our biggest, weirdest event where people start boozing at 6am. But here I am at a Keggs ‘n Eggs party, making sure the good people in Austin know what to do today. I would recommend a Venti Starbucks coffee with whisky, but that’s just me. Anyway, the top 5…

SXSW 2009 – Friday’s Schedule
The biggest two days of your partying life are here. Behold: the Friday of SXSW. Last year, I remember simply giving up on the spreadsheet and wandering the streets, knowing that free food and drinks were available at almost every bar I walked into. But! Don’t give up just yet, because there are some can’t-miss…
SXSW 2009: Thursday’s Schedule
This is the final “calm” before the storm that is Friday & Saturday. And by calm I mean over 80 FREE parties. Right. So, my top 5 today: 1. Paste Magazine, obvi. Still lovin’ the Magic Hat. Brooklyn Vegan co-sponsors this one. 11:30-7, Radio Room 2. All That Sparkles – Glitter party? Noon-8pm, Malverde (mmm…

SXSW 2009: Monday’s schedule
Here’s your can’t-miss sched, and luckily for all the worker bees, nothing on this one starts ’til 5:30. So you can punch the clock AND party like it’s SXSW 2009 all in one day. 5:30pm – If you were lucky enough to score an invite to the Statesman’s food bloggers party, do it. Whole Foods.…
Erin Patton of Jordan and Starbury Fame Speaks
Sunday at Noon. This flyer says it best: I think a church is sponsoring it, but regardless of religious affiliation, it should be an engaging and interesting talk. Especially for anyone complete unmotivated by the SXSW hype!
Free Pre-St. Patty’s Day CrossFit Workout!
Rain or shine, Hell or high water, three local CrossFits are getting together to host a pre-St. Pat’s workout under the South First Street bridge tomorrow morning. DO IT! [this includes you, boozy SXSWers! Pre-work-off-your-binge-drinking at a perfectly reasonable 10:30am!] You will LOVE it. Even if it’s 43 degrees and raining.
So you want to go to happy hour?
Because I’m thinking of it today. Gingerman Through my exhaustive (and exhausting) SXSW research, I stumbled upon a party serving Vermont’s Magic Hat beer–to which I got super-excited, Twittered about, turns out Magic Hat is ON TWITTER, found me, and let me know that they actually already distribute Magic Hat down here! So some research…
Thursday: Spas + Jewels + new bars
As usual, Thursday night is packed with stuff. Don’t let the cold, dreary rain keep you from partying! This particular Thursday is the last before the SXSW madness strikes, but Cuatro’s is getting in on the fun early with some sort of college party, see my spreadsheet (tab: SXSW 2009) for more details. As far…
