Hey guys, I just saw this new event if anyone is interested in playing Austin during the big music week. It looks like it's geared toward indie artists and bands... March 14-17, slots for 150 bands, all on 6th Street. No badge required, free to the public, and all genres are accepted, so it looks like there will be a lot of traffic there. I think deadline for submission is Feb 15, enter online or by mail. Their website is www.redgorillamusic.com.

Consumption played Red Gorilla Fest last year when it was still going by the name of Dreamscapers Showcase. We played at Chuggin Monkey on 6th St. and had a Hell of a time....my notes about this is...it's not easy to get in and you'll most surely be paying to play.

And Spert, here's an interesting note about Here Come the Mummes....
Through a college booking agent they worked with, they booked around $60,000 in college gigs for last year....evidently they fuckin burn it up...who knew right??

The biggest perk to Red Gorilla Fest, in my opinion, is that it runs smack in the middle of SXSW.
