Holy crap! I just realized that South By Southwest is just over two weeks away. Frank and I will be heading down there for the first time this year and we are already a bit overwhelmed with the amount of shows happening. And they keep piling on. Two bands we certainly support, HULL and SNAKE SUSTAINE have just been announced for the "ChronicYouth.com Freak Pit Day Party" also featuring YaHoWah13, Entrance Band, Joan Of Arc, Barn Burner, Serena Maneesh, Zoroaster, Atlas Moth, Dark Castle, Lullabye Arkestra, Death Beofre Dishonor, Alpha & Omega, Bitter End, Goes Cube, Hopewell and Kreisor. We will definitely be popping in to check our bros out!
There is a thread started in our forum where we (and others) will be constantly posting updates on showcases being announced, so if you want to keep up to date with it, just follow the thread. Of course if you'll be in Austin for this, you will not want to miss the Metal Injection sponsored FULL METAL TEXAS event.
Both bands have also announced shows that they will be playing on the road down to SXSW. Here is each band's itinerary:
