Looking forward to this. I have been watching documentaries lately. This will be a nice bit of fiction to watch

"Is it a popular movie or show? If yes, then shove it in a park and boom the world is built."

I remember when south by southwest was music instead of a traveling snake oil show.

i'm sure it'll be a bunch of vapid ego-stroking, much like everything else at SXSW

More tryouts for CEO. Dana still looks to be in the lead (unfortunately).

Dana just went to the Oscars with Bob.

Now, Josh is going to Tech Lollapalooza with one of his rivals while the Parks division is flatlining.

And some of you people think he’s got next.

Thank you! The SxSW attendees of 20-30 years ago would have asked the hard questions.

You know, when pop-up parties weren’t sponsored by Doritos and most people had never heard of it.

I was at an early morning presentation one year of ‘Fans, bands, and brands: how to expand your reach’ and the presenter was clearly not ready for such tough questions at, what was then, just a music industry conference.

He didn’t realize that many a deal was hammered out at breakfast and most of the power players were up early, ha.
