IFC Crossroads House SXSW 2011

The Independent Film Channel will be setting up headquarters in Austin for SXSW 2011.  Last year, the IFC Crossroads House hosted some great bands and events. 

You can sign up for a wristband here.

Invisible Children: Silver Series

This looks really cool.  A ton of good artists will be doing some acoustic busking on the streets during SXSW throughout the festival.  Donations will help efforts to end the 25 year war in East Africa.  Some of the performances will be filmed by the awesome La Blogotheque.
