Or... sorta the opposite of that. There is only one Boston group on the current list of SXSW Showcasing Bands, compared to 10 bands from New York (including Brooklyn) and 10 from Austin. This probably reflects more on the general trend of Bands Must Be From Brooklyn Or Austin Or No One Will Like Them than on the Boston music scene, and hundreds of bands will be added to the festival before March. Still, it might've been nice to see a few more area folks on the bill by now.

Across the river, Zuzu's has their Electrosocial night with Plunge Into Death and Cyanide Valentine, with dancing provided by DJ MicL Pvtn. It's your best bet, and fun is guaranteed.

(Guess which band is from Boston, Boston.)
