If you're traveling to Austin this March for the musical spectacular known as South By Southwest, come on over to the Dell Lounge at the new Volume Night Club (located at 612 E. Sixth St., next door to Emo's) for Paste's fourth annual SXSW showcase, presented this year in conjunction with our blogging-fiend friends at Stereogum.
Before we get to the set times for the myriad bands playing at the Dell Lounge, here's a few incidental reasons why the Paste & Stereogum party—which is open to the public as well as SXSW badgeholders—is worth hitting: free drinks (courtesy of Ketel One and Southern Comfort), free swag bags for early arrivers (courtesy of Busted Tees and Saucony), and the chance to be one of 50 people each day who receives a free Kodak Digital Single-Use camera. Hop the line by RSVPing for priority entrance here (deadline to RSVP is Thurs. March 6). With no further ado, the sweet lineup:
