A night that began with Austin-Houston locals Ume, whom we last saw at our
St. Patrick’s Day Concert, ended with DJ Lo Down Loretta Brown–Erykah Badu–at the Austin Music Hall.
And somewhere after The Strokes ended their outdoor SXSW show, and the fireworks brightened a night-screened Lady Bird Lake, The Wu-Tang Clan performed the jam-packed Village Voice Media SXSW Party. A helluva night.
It was a solidly packed house. Lots of hands throwing up big ol’ “Wu’s” in the crowd. Our sister paper The Houston Press was, awesomely, liveblogging the whole night–check out their full coverage of the night (with photos) over on Rocks Off.
As Brittany points out, Badu was billed as guest DJ but shared the stage with Wu-Tang for their final songs. DJ Lo Down sounded great, and the place was thumping with bass. So, Pete’ll be along soon with a big ol’ recap, but in the meantime make the jump for some photos from the night. More to come!
