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.
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…

Austin Restaurant Week 2, Round 2
Round two of Austin’s second Restaurant Week is NOW, March 8-11, so try a restaurant on the cheap with prix-fixe $25 or $35 menus. My G and I tried Jeffrey’s last week and were pretty happy. I went with beet salad, gnocchi (pictured), and chocolate cake. He went crispy oysters, ribs (pictured), and crepes. Luckily,…
Achachay! at Red Eyed Fly (yep, it rhymes)
Achachay! at Red Eyed Fly at 11:30pm. It costs $5 to get in. They only play for 40 minutes so you’ve got to get there early! According to the lead singer: Top ten reasons to come to the show tomorrow night (Garrett, consider this a convincing bailout suggestion email to be forwarded): (1) – It’s…
