I believe your list of Portland bands is incomplete. The Prids will also be playing at SXSW.
2
These are just the acts listed on the SXSW site. I assumed there would be more.

The SXSW site has Eat Skull playing on the 19th which is part of the Siltbreeze showcase.

Oh yeah, I must have missed that one. Plus I know Explode Into Colors is playing as well. And the Prids. 30? 30-ish?

You should break down the stats into per capita bands. That way due to our smaller size we can still beat SF.

I think SXSW sucks, mainly because I can't afford to go.
7
I think that you've also missed the Decemberists, although they're not officially listed on the SXSW page that you linked to.

From their newsletter:

Decemberists headline NPR's showcase at Austin's South by Southwest, playing The Hazards of Love in its entirety.

Per Capita per shmapita--I'd like to see those 40 SF bands pitted against the 30 pdx bands in a steel cage match....or those 6? strip joints in Springfield against our 50? strip joints...
9
Yes. Beat SF. This city confuses the hell out of me.

Bad news: no Torchy's on 6th St. (or anywhere downtown) at the moment, though I wonder if they'll set something up for SXSW.

Check out El Chilito on Congress tho.

"It's about time this blog had its own spinoff dedicated to nothing but tacos."

I couldn't agree more. Consider me a contributor.

There needs to be a NXNW here in Portland.
13
