The Music portion of SXSW begins in less than a week. Since we love you, we want to make sure that A) you're prepared to handle the madness and B) we get you into the madness.
So, not only are we hooking you up with SXSW Survival Tips, we're also giving some lucky folks SXSW Music Wristbands (See the details below.) Hell and Yeah.
SONICBIDS' SXSW SURVIVAL TIPS
- Get the App - Downloading the Official SXSW mobile app is essential. There are literally 1,000 things happening all the time. Know what's around you.
- Hydrate - Normally my first stop after checking into my hotel is the closest convenience store. Two gallons of water and a few Gatorades later and I'm on my way. You will thank me later.
- Every meal can and should be consumed in Burrito form - I'm not really sure why I need to explain this any further.
- Eat one pork product daily - See above.
- You can't be everywhere, but you can try - Before my first SXSW my schedule was longer than The Iliad. I'd need a time machine to be everywhere I thought I could be. Make a few "Must-Sees" and then let the rest just happen. Remember, that App is useful.
- Savor the transition of Interactive to Music - The sea change of polo shirts to leather and ripped denim is a sight to behold.
- Say hello - See a great show? Say what's up to the band. Give them your card. Same thing goes with a great panel. Everyone is there to connect. There's not an atmosphere like SXSW.
