I'm a labor union organizer for the Musicans Union. You should interview some of the folks from the Austin Local about this! They're doing great work fighting back against slave wages at SXSW. Music is work!

Every single Irish act pulled out of SXSW. This made me feel so fucking proud of my country!

SXSW was once the pinnacle of live indie music

This is just a microcosm for how Austin is going generally

Iāve lived in Austin my whole life, have worked downtown for a long time, and one my Momās best friendās brother was one of the cofounders of SXSW. The downfall of SXSW is truly heartbreaking.
I remember not too long ago, it felt like EVERY local in Austin and every film/music loving enthusiast was here downtown during SXSW, and it felt like an annual collective festival of grassroot shows and good vibes for the city of Austin. These days I as well as most of the people I know stay as far away from downtown as possible during SXSW.
Austin will ALWAYS be my home, and Iāll forever love this city, but there are beloved aspects of this town that have either progressively downgraded or gone away entirely.

It's getting harder and harder for grassroot entities to exist with how expensive everything is.
Gentrification galore.

āThe situation in the Middle Eastā

"We believe its important to stand together...and pay for the bombs in all the conflicts we just mentioned"

from them donating to the us army to a presentation of how "ai is changing the future"
( everyone boo'ed the entire thing )
yeah, sxsw is falling apart.

Imagine coming from another country and you get 100 bucks.

The only people I've ever known to go to sxsw have been coworkers at ad agencies who are paid to go as a team and do marketing workshops. This "music festival" is just a lame corporate conference. The whole thing makes me cringe.

known about SXSW for years and literally did not know it was supposed to primarily be a music fest lol

personally, I rate the military-industrial complex a strong 1 to a light 2

Dude southby is so scuffed its insane. I run an indie label/event company in austin and multiple of our artists got booked for southby and I was bummed that we didn't get some official involvement but now I feel like I dodged a bullet. The Austin music scene isn't dead but it is Underground. ;)
