SXSW is going on right now, and this is one of those rare occasions when I wish I were in Texas...
but California has more than enough cool shows coming up.
MOST IMPORTANTLY: Liam Finn is going to be at BOTH in SF on May 5th.

this man is a fucking melodic genius.
that shall be quite a spectacle. there is a certain refined quality found in 2nd generation musicians [he is Australian singer Neil Finn's son] that cannot be described in words. I love how he's all over the place in the Letterman performance, he is so talented on so many levels. ah, I love him.
Rolling Stone gave a pretty accurate equation to describe this man
Elliott Smith - Despair + A leprechaun = Liam Finn
=)
