by on January 8, 2010 in Uncategorized

So last year, we got the grand honor of Lou Reed.
And we should expect nothing less for SXSW 2010.

Motown legend Smokey Robinson will give the keynote speech of the South By Southwest (SXSW) festival in Austin, Texas next March.

The music aspect of the festival, which sees acts take over venues across the US city for gigs plus lectures and seminars, is set to take place on March 17-21.

Last year Lou Reed gave the event’s keynote speech while bands including Metallica, Jane’s Addiction, Kanye West and Black Lips played live.

SXSW has released a teaser of some of the bands to come, pending the big time players.

2010 is going to be a good one!
