I'd a search but did not find much. My band is headed to Austin for SXSW, we have some unofficial shows/parties set up but still have time and want to play/network with other bands.
My signature has our website link with tour info, radio, & press, and some free song downloads. Also have a vid at the bottom of sig.

All our shows are unofficial SXSW so far. There is lots of stuff going on, just need to dig in and find/make connections.
Lots of networking with bands that we have had shows with that were/are from there plus media and music contacts we have made over the years. Still working it to get as many shows while we are there.

Where/when are you playing, I'm pretty sure I will be there this year. My band isn't playing but my friends band will probably be there. South by is always a good time.

Should have done SXSW this year with my former band had our manager get the slot for us was unofficial gigs to but we were excited until the split. Will try next year with the new band if we make it that far.

Sorry to hear that, we are really looking forward to it. We're driving straight down then touring back up east coast doing some radio shows and playing a couple of cities.
