Yesterday I mentioned that I was really looking forward to catching The Gay Blades at SXSW. So today I'm bringing you one of my favorite tracks off their Ghosts album (released last September) "O Shot." Enjoy.

It's officially official. SXSW has announced their
Music Festival Showcases.
I'll be at the Auditorum Shores for most of my trip...catching acts like Jambo, Biscuit Brothers, and Explosions in the Sky...but I'm hoping to make it to a few of my favorites as well.
...Like
The Gay Blades. I got a chance to see them here in Phoenix at
Modified Arts (a great venue for underground acts) awhile back. I have to be honest when I say that I wasn't expecting much, but it turned out to be a fantastic show. This trash rock duo really knows how to entertain...and they aren't bad to look at either.
They'll be showcasing on Wednesday, March 18th at the Dirty Dog Bar at 12:15 a.m. Check em out.
