SXSW Update - Friday

Greetings from the Lone Star State!

Well, another day, another jog along the Colorado River. Right now, there's an industry VIP breakfast happening outside the Fader Fort. Guess who stopped by breakfast today: my sister! Bea! (Beatriz).

She's in town from Chicago, and she came to breakfast. Sweet.

The Fratelli's played an amazing accoustic set here at the Fort yesterday,

 

And so did Bonde do Role from Brazil. Aziz Ansari gave away a Zune to a member of the crowd - who turned out to be the bassist from Nomo!

Later that night, I was off to the Batanga Latin Music Showcase. Saludos a los amigos de Zune! Gracias por leer mi pagina de web! I actually got to hang out with Girl in a Coma - I gave them each a Zune player, even!

Ok, I'm off - take care everybody!

I'm Cesar Menendez. I left the Xbox marketing world for Microsoft's new foray into music - Zune. Community, cool videos, music, discovering new music - these are things I love. In the past I wrote music reviews for RealNetworks, and before that I volunteered at KCMU (now KEXP).
