The VLatest CARLON – Edition 1.21 SXSW!
From Milo: Pick up the phone. We are in Austin, Texas and it’s nice and warm here. The dog outside our spacious apartment keeps barking because it hears Ryan’s voice and it dosen’t like his tone. It’s really getting annoying. We played a show for a website by the name of tumblr. Through this website you can post tidbits about your life that others can read. An example of a tidbit would be “I’m sitting at my computer right now”. The show went well. People were sitting through the performance and many of them were posting blogs on their phones about us or texting each other about how cool we looked. I appreciate that. Last night we were minus Jared. He works for the man and the man told him he couldn’t have any fun. The three of us (Ryan, Mike and I) went out on the town. I figured out that it’s not a good idea to drink tequila, whiskey, gin and beer. It makes for a bad after party. Tomorrow morning we have to get up at the ungodly hour of 6:30 AM to be at Fox Austin at 7:50 AM. We are going to do an interview with them, then play really loud music. This will be broadcast on television. If I drop a stick it will be hilarious. I think the show will be incredible and people will realize that even at 8 in the morning we are still really good. Stay tuned for a video of that performance. I look amazing at that time of day so it’s worth waking up for.
From Ryan: The tumblr party! Yeah, we played that shit! Yes…we met a lot of good tumblr peolple: John, Josh, Jacob and Bianca. The feedback after the show was great – they even asked us to play another set. After the party, Mike and I sent the wounded home and pressed on. We met up with a friend of mine, Anthony, at the Side Bar. He gave us some local insight into Austin and SXSW. Later we went to the after party of a psychedelic music festival at The Beauty Bar. Lots of weirdoes and beardoes. I loved it. The cab ride home was an incredible failure. We took a hour long detour to Carey Drive as opposed to Cary Drive. Just a little $147 miscommunication. We did make friends with cab driver. He’s our guy now. Pio is his name. Today we’re all just resting up for Good Day Austin tomorrow. Pretty pumped to play on TV.
