Crystal Stilts ::: Mrs. Bea’s ::: SXSW 2009
One of the things that keeps me going every year is the accessibility of some bands. They play seventeen times over the course of a couple of days.

At times the guys sounded a bit Doorsish (not a jab), but a baritone Jim Morrisonesque type voice. They lived up to the hype, I’m just upset at myself for not catching them earlier.
