It would be practically impossible for us to take all of our SoundDiego crew to SxSW, and personally, I don't know that I have it in me to do all of that racing around from venue to venue for four straight days, but it doesn't mean certain performances don't make me completely envious. When our team posted video of Eisley performing in a church, for example, I experienced some serious FOMO. Fortunately Eisley is on tour, so if you felt that same pang of jealousy, you can see the band tonight at House of Blues. Perhaps not as intimate as a beamed cathedral, it should be a great show nonetheless. Emo Nite at Casbah and Jimmy Buffett at the Belly Up are already sold out, but you have some other options, including the UK's Dead Coast playing at Blonde, a local lineup lead by Alive & Well at the Merrow, and a tribute to the Allman Brothers at Music Box.
