Back To Reality: A SXSW Retrospective

It was about this time last week that the Chop Shop crew was embarking on the adventure that was SXSW 2010. Now we are back to reality, working hard to make up for all the lost time spent partying in Austin. While we were there, we had a showcase and party (if you follow this blog, you might have heard about it). Both went off without a hitch, and were a big success. It got a little cold on the last day but a little weather wasn’t going to bring us down.

Thanks to everyone that came out the shows, to the folks that helped make it happen, and to all the bands for being a part of the Chop Shop 2010 SXSW experience. Can’t wait until next year!

Chop Shop Showcase @ SXSW

Later this month, we are packing up the Chop Shop wagon and making the trek out to Austin, TX for South By Southwest. Last year was so fun, we thought we’d go ahead and do it again. This year, we have some truly amazing stuff planned. We will be featuring some of the new additions to the Chop Shop label as well as a handful of artists that we are super excited to have as a part of our events. If you are going to be at SXSW, we’d love to see you!
