San Francisco SXSW Showcase

Posted on January 8, 2008 by | 2 Comments

SF Weekly ran a story about The Bay Bridged putting together a big showcase at SXSW. Full story here. Scissors For Lefty, Film School, Social Studies, Birds and Batteries, and Von Iva are some of the bands performing.

SF Weekly got their story a bit wrong, though. In it, they write:

The showcase places these SF bands in a festival that will also feature music veterans and giants like The Stooges, Public Enemy, Amy Winehouse and Bloc Party.

Those bands were from last year, son!

    Whoops! Thanks for catching that. I’ll make the correction.
