Austin Texas
Street performers, SXSW, March 17, 2012
After the drumline began their walk back to East Austin, I walked over there too, to enjoy a last slice of Detroit-style pizza at the 313 Via food truck. As I sat at the picnic table enjoying my slice, I watched the brilliant colored lights in the trees at the outdoor performance space across the street. SXSW, March 17, 2012
This East Austin drumline had been marching through the crowds on 6th Street earlier in the evening. They eventually set up under the I-35 overpass and played a series of cadences to appreciative crowds before walking back to the East Side with their equipment. SXSW, March 17, 2012
