San Antonio bands at SXSW-ish (an incomplete list)

We’ll begin our SXSW coverage in earnest beginning tomorrow with blogging and photos galore, but today we’ll begin listing the SA acts playing non-SXSW-sanctioned showcases and day parties in Austin. (All the SA acts with official SXSW showcases are profiled here.) We realize his list is probably incomplete, and we’d love to add any other bands appearing. Send info to jmartin@sacurrent.com or add it in the comments section below.

Unlike the SXSW showcases, these shows are all free, but they’re all still in Austin, in case that wasn’t made clear. As more bands get added, I may have to take this back, but I’ve seen all the bands listed below perform live, and they’re all highly recommended.
