South by Southwest, Part 2

0

I had a dream last night that I was back in Austin, enjoying good music with good friends, on a boat in Lady Bird Lake, no less.

Then a tornado hit. I’m taking that as a sign to continue chronicling my travels on my sorely neglected blog, so I can write about events that are more… current.

So back to where we left off: the film and music portions of South by Southwest in Austin, TX.

Lessons on Creativity from The White Stripes

0

My first big takeaway from my South by Southwest experience so far has literally just dawned on me, though it’s actually more of an affirmation of existing thoughts than a completely new takeaway. With challenges and limitations, come creativity and innovation.

Relics from My First Rock Concert

The following is a recently found piece I wrote for a fan site, detailing my first-ever rock concert experience: BS 2000 and Le Tigre at Honolulu’s Pipeline Cafe on February 22, 2001. BS 2000 was Beastie Boy Adam “Adrock” Horovitz’s side project; Le Tigre was former Bikini Kill frontwoman Kathleen Hanna’s band. Horovitz and Hanna eventually wed in 2006.

Lucid Dreams in Hollywood

0

A week ago today, I was in Los Angeles, roaming around in “the world’s largest independent record store,” Amoeba Music, sifting through vintage rock posters, walking among aisles of CDs and vinyl records… and brushing shoulders with director Michel Gondry.

Oh right, ’twas Hollywood.

Vasthy, Liz, Christina and I had just come from eating dinner at Hard Rock Cafe on Universal City Walk. At Amoeba, we were all exhausted but willed ourselves to get lost in the music – literally. I mean, it’s why we were all here.

No Doubt was icing on the cake

2

Last week, I won tickets from BAMP, a local concert promoter, to see No Doubt’s second show here – their last one of the tour. Although I’m not a huge fan of theirs – I had a brief No Doubt phase when Tragic Kingdom came out; I was ten – I figured it’d be nice to go to a concert when your tickets are complimentary! So together with Tracy, who I met at the Franz Ferdinand gig in Tempe, we went to the show.
