The South by Southwest® (SXSW®) Conferences & Festivals (March 8-17, 2013) offer the unique convergence of original music, independent films, and emerging technologies. Fostering creative and professional growth alike, SXSW® is the premier destination for discovery.
Paul Gordon's The Happy Poet delighted SXSW audiences during the 2010 edition. Well now the "all organic, mostly vegetarian comedy" finally hits the big screen again.
The film will receive a one week engagement at Santa Monica's Laemmle 4-plex this Friday, March 22. Director Paul Gordon and producer David Hartstein will conduct Q&As following the Friday and Saturday 7:30pm screenings. For more info check out this page and head here for tickets.

Taco Bell’s Feed the Beat® returned to Austin this year as presenting sponsor of Hype Machine’s Hype Hotel with events taking place March 11 – March 16. The venue was home to some of this year’s top performances, including various musicians from the Feed the Beat program. Fans who were in Austin on March 11 were able to attend the “Feed the Beat: SXSW 2013” for free through a RSVP process where a first of it's kind "rockumentary" was filmed using footage captured and shared by members of the audience. Additionally, Taco Bell’s new Cool Ranch Doritos® Locos Tacos were served FREE to fans who came by the Hype Hotel.
