Vote for a Paste List of the Day to Become a SXSW Panel

Paste’s very own multimedia editor, Max Blau, is competing for a shot at hosting a panel at 2012’s South By Southwest festival. The topic is Band vs. Baby: Balancing Touring and Family, and it will explore how artists manage to juggle performing music and keeping their family healthy. Sean Gamble of John Muir Medical Center would speak at the panel, along with Robert Earl Keen, Shara Worden of My Brightest Diamond and Elizabeth Ozer of the University of California, San Francisco. The experts will discuss tips on family and band expectations, scheduling, family health and the possibility of bringing a family on the road.

You can vote for Blau’s panel here.
