Austin continues to be a land of great things, even during the madness of South by Southwest with a bazillion bands blasting their music at the same time.
Austin's so great that the madness isn't even madness. For instance, a massive line of hundreds of people waiting for a wristband from The Fader Fort was handled patiently and calmly by the locals. We're from Miami, so we skipped the line. (Sorry, guys.) Pork buns from East Side Kings, chocolate eclair ice cream, and booze were free downtown upon our arrival from the airport. They were free for those willing to wait, patiently and calmly.
Everyone on bikes, eating organic, working together, listening to music. Austin is awesome.
