In Austin and wanna meet a Busy Beaver? Here are five SXSW 2012 spots where you’re mostly likely to see a Busy Beaver in the wild:
1. Pinterest Explained: Q&A with Co-Founder Ben Silbermann
We make pins, they’re called Pinterest, of course we’re going to be there! Plus, owner Christen Carter is a huge fan— check out her button board.
WHEN: Tuesday, March 13 WHERE: Austin Convention Center
For more info, check out the SXSW Schedule.
2. TaskRabbit’s Detox Day
A few Busy Beavers may or may not have had a little too much vino at Gary Vaynerchuk’s #secretwineparty, so we’ll definitely be hitting up Detox Day at TaskRabbit Park this afternoon. There will be yoga and free juices from Daily Juice!
WHEN: Monday, March 12 WHERE: TaskRabbit Park, a.k.a. 307 East 2nd Street
For more info, check out taskrabbit.com/blog.
3. Third Man Rolling Record Store
Third Man always has something exciting planned for SXSW— in 2010 they branded wooden buttons on demand— so we’ll definitely be stopping by the Rolling Record Store.
WHEN: March 14-17 WHERE: TBD
For a full list of locations and more info, check out thirdmanrecords.com/news.
4. Music by the Slice
For the seventh year in a row, our pals over at Home Slice Pizza are hosting a free unofficial music showcase. Brooklyn Brewery will be on tap and all concession proceeds will benefit Urban Roots, so drink up!
WHEN: Friday, March 16 WHERE: 1415 and 1421 South Congress Ave
For more info, check out the Home Slice Pizza blog.
5. Hamilton Pool
This swimming hole is located just a short drive outside of Austin. Yes, Hamilton Pool isn’t part of SXSW, but how could a Busy Beaver resist someplace so dam like?
WHEN: If temp gets up to 90° WHERE: 30 miles west of Austin on FM 3238
