SXSW: Talkin' To Randoms On Red River And A Chicken
We're rolling with a camera crew at this year's fest, capturing our favorite performances, interviewing bands, and getting advice from festival goers on successfully navigating South By Southwest 2008. Yaris/Free Yr Radio kindly lent us wheels to get around. Here Stereogum's Amrit Singh talks to folks about useless wristbands, death metal cuisine, and Vampire Weekend. Check the cameo from freestyle wordsmith Kosha Dillz, who wants to know how SXSW is like a matzoh ball. (Congrats KD, you win a tag.)

This is cool, but you guys reallllly need to export it at a lower bitrate. I'm on a really, really fast dsl connection and it's taking forever to load.

no, it's a good point. we'll see what we can do to balance quality and file size better.

ok, if anyone's still reading this thread, we did some work with our open-source video encoder (ffmpeg) to get a fair balance of quality and file size. videos should be about 1/3 as large from now on...there's still no equivalent of LAME's -aps.
