I don’t mean “blows up” like a gigantic spaceship the size of Manhattan is going to explode in mid air over midtown… oh, wait, you guys didn’t see Prometheus? Good call. What I mean is, the folks over at Nashville’s Dead have thrown together one hell of a party this weekend. We can’t tuck…

Saturday night’s SXSW Send Off Show was an absolute barn burner. Ten bands, two stages, enough Third Shift Amber Lager to bring peace to waring countries, the wafting aroma of donuts, and all the friends that we ever could imagine.
