But I Just Like Music

Cause a picture is worth 1,000 words (and we already covered all the bands we saw at the 2012 edition of Brofest), here are our 23 best photos from the day long affair. Looking forward to Brofest 2013! The Growlers Titus Andronicus White Mystery Gauntlet Hair And So I Watch You From Afar Hospitality Bass [...]

Another band I’ve been wanting to see for awhile. Also up to my 21st 22nd (and probably last) band for this weekend. I feel like a broken record, but this is another great set. Bass Drum of Death are bringing it today. Great garage punk sound. I do wish I could see them at a [...]

As if the past two days at SXSW weren’t enough – bring on the tunes! Made it back to Dallas in under 3 hours – just enough time to hit Brofest from Parade of Flesh at Dada. Solid lineup from a handful of bands I hoped to catch at SXSW, but missed. First act is [...]
