If I ever pass through, I'd probably have to check it out, too.

I was afraid Eric had somehow fallen into a coma and missed the rest of SXSW, and THAT was why there was no blog entry detailing Monday's adventures posted yesterday. I am relieved. And I am also really thinking about planning a trip to Austin just to check out the Alamo Drafthouse. Oh, good.
