What, no Alabama Thunderpussy? Attractive and Popular? Cheeseburger? Deaf in the Family? Green Milk form the Planet Orange? Les Claypool/Electric Apricot? Menwhopause? Mother Truckers? Picastro? Psychedelic Horseshit ? Shitdisco? The Sippy Cups? Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin? Steaming Wolf Penis? Turn Me On Dead Man (for the Beatles conspiracy reference)? At least Vincent Van Go Go?

(Holy Crap, an announced Jandek, I just noticed.)

Fianlly, as a Bostonian, I have to give a holler to Boston Chinks (from Memphis) and Brighton, MA (from Chicago).

And for the record, I like the list, but what’s a list on an indie site without a “What, no…” How many of these bands go back to being “Bill Frontierre and the Frotierresmen” after SXSW? I have to think half on this list didn’t exist three months ago or were renamed to get attention vs. the other 48 shows going on at 3:30 p.m. on Tuesday.

And I already noticed I repeated two of yours. Stupid spell checker in Firefox needs a fact checker as well.

No worries. I’ve become immune to people tearing me apart after creating a list. See top indie songs of all time, for instance.

Hot Live Guys thank you for their inclusion. We hope Austin has enough beer.
