SXSW: 254 Bands Down, ? To Go

Austinist has compiled what - as far as we can tell - looks like the latest list of bands for South by Southwest. We've gotta say, it's a pretty choice roster so far. According to the SXSW site, all bands that have submitted showcase applications will be notified whether they've been chosen to play by February 1st, although in past years there's been considerable griping about bands not actually hearing back until much later.

Will the process go any smoother this time around? Stay tuned, and keep reading to see our fine cutty-pasting of the master list...
