It's official! Badge has been purchased, hotel has been booked. Not the hotel I wanted (all downtown hotels are booked!), but it does provide free shuttle service between it and 6th Street.

Who else has purchased their badge? Or are you guys chancing it for the day parties, wristband and/or free shows?

Might as well get an official count as to who's going.

Barring catastrophe, I fully plan on being present and accounted for, and expect most of you to do the same!

I've made no plans as yet, but there's no way I won't be there.

I plan on going. I'm not buying a badge or wristband or whatever. I'm going to use every connection I've ever had and see what I can get for free. Traveling on a non-profit's salary isn't easy. Worst case scenario: I end up venturing out by myself while everyone I know is at a show. I'll be fine.

Not half as much as actually being in said lineups, but I get ya.

This actually serves as a reminder and a plea: if you plan on coming to SXSW, BRING BAIL MONEY!!

I'm thinking we'll need to raise at least $500,000 just to keep the ATL boys roaming the streets the entire time.

Two weeks holiday booked at work. I'll sort out the flight a few weeks before. Hotel, screw that, sleep in the gutter. For the second week, I'm thinking LA, San Fran, Vegas & Tijuana.

Well, I'm actually going to try for multiple days this time. I've got two months to sweet-talk SHEFRAC, so wish me luck. In the past, this happens while we're all down in SA for Spring Break visiting the in-laws, but the in-laws have since moved up here, so I'm not sure yet whether this will be more or less conducive to my being able to stay multiple days.

It's all going to be in the timing of the request...

I'm doing a Friday to Sunday trip and need to know if $220 is a decent price for airfare from Chicago to Austin. Anyone? I never know how much airfare is supposed to cost or what's considered a good deal.

That's actually pretty good, I think. I'm happy if I can get Detroit-Austin (via Dallas) for under $300.
