Like last year, Aquarium Drunkard is kicking off SXSW early and doing a night-party during Interactive at Red Eyed Fly with Champion Scion, Saturday night, March 13th. This year we have local champs, and AD favorites, The Strange Boys and Harlem lined up along with Blair opening the show. I would advise getting there early as the line was backed up down Red River last year for three hours. Giddy up. RSVP BELOW.

Doors 8pm. Blair/Harlem/The Strange Boys

+ Red Eyed Fly is located at 715 Red River Street Austin, TX

You remember my post about the Damon Dash’s own silver factory, right?

Here’s a video of the opening
