SXSW......I hate dancing by myself

So the annual music festival SXSW will be here before you know it in good old Austin TX.

I am so torn on going this year. Most of the bands I want to see are so spread out from Wednesday to Sunday.

My friends theSTART sent my a myspace message (one of the only pro's of myspace for me) saying that I can hang with them some on Wednesday of their show. They are so nice and so great. That makes me really tempted to go.

I also have been working on kicking it with the Dillinger Escape Plan, but they don't seem to remember me too well. The problem with that is that they play at 1 AM on Friday or Thursday night, whatever you wanna call it.

Here is the problem, I can take off work for part of Wednesday, all of Thursday and come in half of a day on Friday. I would have to spend 2 nights in a hotel in Austin since I don't feel like bugging people to let me crash that live around the area.

Is this worth it? I would be going by myself for sure, which is nice but maybe it would be nice if I had more company with me.....

I don't know what to do. I need to decide by next week probably. Ughh..

If I go, here is a few acts I plan on checking out for sure on my Wednesday-Thursday trip:
