According to a press release from Parade of Flesh's John Iskander last year's massively successful 1-day festival South By South Flesh (SXSF) is no more. Not to worry, though, the festival which will bring the likes of Dum Dum Girls and Coathangers to town is not going away alltogether, but it will be adopting a new moniker.This year to further distance itself from the Austin festival Iskander decided to call his event Bro Fest. We love the move of disassociating with the increasingly less cool SXSW; Not only does it help the festival stand more on merrits, it also sets it apart from the myriad of punnily-named SXSW shows that happen all throughout the south in late March every year. Still though, the new name choice is a somewhat baffling. But I suppose a rose by any other name...
But really no matter what silly title Dallas' post-SXSW bash goes by, it will still boast the incredible, cutting-edge bookings Parade of Flesh has become known for. Here's the full list of bands that are confirmed (so far) for Bro Fest 2010 (which I have also somehow failed to mention up to this point will take place Sunday, March 21st at the Doublewide):
ASG
DUM DUM GIRLS
FRANKIE ROSE & The OUTS
LITURGY
RWAKE
SISTERS
SLEEPY SUN
THOSE DARLINS
TINSEL TEETH
U.S. CHRISTMAS
WHITE MICE
WITHERED
WOVEN BONES

Hi Cory,
My name is Shmu. I play drums in an Austin based keys/drums duo called Zorch. We love your website. The LOLCornell of the week part made me cry I laughed so hard. I've heard so many great things about you! We're coming to Denton tomorrow night to play at Rubber Gloves. If you're not doing anything, you should come out, we would love to meet you. Keep us in mind!
