I will be leaving Seattle next Wednesday for SXSW in Austin, an accredited music festival. I will be staying with a woman that goes by the name Karen. She is a manager at SXSW in some aspect, I'm not sure how exactly. I found her through craigslist after putting out an ad saying I'd pay 300 for an 11 night stay as I was having trouble locking down people on couchsurfing.com/hostels. The funny thing is I got offers from both right at the time I sent Karen a portion of her money.
This should be a great festival, I've actually talked to a lot of people that have visited Austin or have lived there recently and they all say I'm going to have a blast.
So to get things in order, I'm going to try and catch some Seattle bands going to the festival. Say Hi has some great recorded material and I'd like to mingle with them. I do know a dude in Mount St. Helens Vietnam Band, another band playing there and going to SXSW. We'll see what happens.
A closing line of original poetry:
Not having written poetry in a long time, I am not ready to write as well as I can. But how good is that if I am just a man? Good enough.
