Though it’s been years and years and years since their debut (back in the days when Live was one of the world’s most relevant bands), they’ve recently brought their practically-mythologized live show back on the road, and the early bird crowd at Mohawk on Friday was damn lucky for it.

Another one of those “stick around here all day because every band is awesome” shows, the Radio Room was home to this event on the 19th. The crowd enjoyed sets by Cursive and The Avett Brothers, but the top highlights had to be an intimate set by Daniel Johnston and a blistering set by The Wrens, both clearly proving that the magic is still there.

Austinist Presents Gonna Gonna Get Down 4: We were definitely pleased with the plethora of talent we had tapped for our day show on the 18th -- Telekinesis, Here We Go Magic, J. Tillman, Elvis Perkins in Dearland, Vetiver, and The Mae Shi all made an impression on our guests. Highlights had to be the ferocious hardcore-metal assault of Young Widows, channeling the Jesus Lizard just hours before David Yow took the stage at the Austin Music Hall, and the amazing live show from Akron/Family, who are currently touring to support their upcoming release, Set 'Em Wild, Set 'Em Free.

Austinist & Gothamist are proud to announce our SXSW day party, taking place on Wednesday, March 12 at the Mohawk. The party kicks off around 11 a.m., and the day ends at 6, but not before Shout Out Louds, Shearwater, Liam Finn and Phosphorescent perform. As usual, the party is free, open to all. See you then!
