SXSW: 80 More Bands Confirm, And We've Got The List

sxsw_green_display.jpg

As you sit in the snow, bored to tears with your second snow day, you may again wonder if the folks at SXSW have released their huge band list so that all good indie-yuppies have something to do later this week at work besides listening to that Clap Your Hands Say Yeah leak. Well, not so much. But thanks to the good people at Done Waiting and BrooklynVegan, some MySpace confirmations, a big stack of press releases, and some tips from readers, we've increased our 'confirmed' list from 160 bands to 240! Find out who has joined the party after the jump.

As usual, a disclaimer: this is not an official SXSW list, but all bands listed have been cited as playing SXSW in the press, via their PR firms, radio, MySpace, or their official websites (among other things). Thus, 95%+ of these bands should be in Austin in March. If you have additional information on SXSW acts, please leave it in the comments.
