Today is the first BIG day of day parties, so cube-dwellers can read along jealously for all the fun everyone else will be enjoying: There are two big day parties, two day parties that will be running all week, and one evening-ish boat party that I recommend today: 1) MAGIC HAT BEER PARTY! Oh, I…

SXSW 2009: Monday’s schedule
Here’s your can’t-miss sched, and luckily for all the worker bees, nothing on this one starts ’til 5:30. So you can punch the clock AND party like it’s SXSW 2009 all in one day. 5:30pm – If you were lucky enough to score an invite to the Statesman’s food bloggers party, do it. Whole Foods.…
Your Lucky Day: SXSW
http://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key=p2_e5Pa9NwdSkKQEQs3v1MA This, my friends, is all you need for SXSW. It is a spreadsheet of the best parties. The criteria: -Free -Free booze / food / cool stuff There are a million and a half lists out there with free parties. Most focus on music. This is not what I care about. I care about…
Typical Thursday: Men’s Night at milk + honey

I quote: “Free drinks and art viewing”
So said a friend of mine. About one of these events, but I can’t remember which. He had no idea Wednesday is the new Thursday this week and it is jam-packed with events. Wednesday Post-Work Agenda: 1) SHOP Join Austin designer Linda Asaf as she hosts her 4th Annual Austin Designer Sample Sale. Head to…

In honor of Tuesday’s election, they’re showing this unreleased film that shows behind the scenes footage of Pearl Jam trying to make a difference. Monday, November 3 at 7pm, free…
Tidbits or Tribeza? Tough Thursday!
I LOVE Austin Tidbits parties. They’re rare (quarterly?), obviously causing them to be more exciting than Tribeza parties, and they usually have fab gift bags and super-fashiony people, making them way more exciting. Not that Tribeza parties don’t have fashiony people–and I will say they draw a fair man-crowd, whereas Tidbits men are randoms off…
Glossy 8 Party
The Statesman’s style writers are all abuzz about the Glossy 8 party tonight. I’m hoping that means plans are huge and it should be awesome! It’s the first time since I’ve been tracking down Austin events (about 2 years now) that I’ve heard about the Statesman throwing a party, so maybe that’s the buzz. Whatever…
Alright, alright, more ACL coverage
Just because I like free parties and magazine parties, I’m posting on ACL again. Letting you guys in on some secrets: The Paste magazine party tonight at Stubb’s should be ridiculous. I tried to sneak into Paste’s party during SXSW, to no avail. But RSVP here and you won’t have to, plus you’ll see What…
Red River Beach Party
This is the most ridiculous/awesome/Austin-y thing I’ve heard of in awhile. Only in Austin would two clubs get together, rent slip-n-slides, inflatable pools, and moonwalks to create a beach party, in late September, on Red River, the street. Loooooove it, love Austin. And there are good bands playing too, for a mere $5! Here for…
