Saucony Originals are down in Austin, TX at the SXSW Music Festival having fun with our friends at MyOpenBar.com and Insound.com. Yesterday we spent the afternoon at Insound’s 10th Anniversay Party playing traditional birthday party games like bean bag toss, smashing pinatas and “Pin the Crystal on the Overused Band Name Animal.” You played that one in grade school, right?

While bands including Obits and Hold Steady rocked out on the patio, we awarded party-goers with Free Jazz O’s certificates, sweet Saucony Originals duffel bags and the ever-popular winner/loser headbands.

The pinatas were a smashing success, and we were psyched to hook up the bands with some new sneakers. Here’s American Analog Set — who reunited just for this event! — with their new Saucony Originals.

If you’re in Austin, come hang out with us today at the third day of Down & Derby roller disco and Four Square Punk at the MyOpenBar party at 902 E Cesar Chavez from 2-8pm.
