Next we took it up a notch (from DorkFactor4 to DorkFactor7 if you were wondering) and did the "Borg" themed 3-D movie ride. This photo's blurry because you're not supposed to take pics and right as I was taking it, some huge guy in god-damned Klingon outfit screamed "NO PHOTOS!" at me over the PA and this almost turned into a blurry photo of Philip and I crapping in our pants.
After Fatty's show, I met up with Mandy (shown here in SLAMMING 3D GLASSES) to check out the Fader Magazine party. Oh, at this point, I should probably mention that in order to get into any SXSW event, you need a SXSW bracelet (the yellow thingy on Mandy's wrist). Because I'm not in a band and because I don't work for a magazine, a bracelet would've cost me like $800! So everywhere I went, I had to depend on the kindness of strangers to get into places. The Fader Magazine party was private, while I was standing outside calling around to see if someone had a pass, this random dude walks up and is like "I overheard you on the phone - I have an extra pass. Here you go, have fun."
So thanks yet again to the kindness of a stranger! The Brian Jonestown Massacre and the Secret Machines played, but we sorta just hung out in the back and people-watched (in 3-D no less!)
