Shirock (Nashville, TN) celebrate a score on Saturday, 3.16 in Austin, TX.

Nicole and I are sitting in the airport in Austin, TX, waiting on our flight back to NYC.

SXSW was awesome! We met a lot of Saucony fans, and gave away 150+ pairs of shoes to those who ruled the shuffleboard court at Texas Garage, got to 21 first at washers at the Insound.com party, or who just happened to be early to the Stereogum.com / PASTE Party on Saturday!

It was great to meet all of you! We found out even though many of you don’t know how to pronounce Saucony (saw-kah-knee is technically the correct pronunciation), you have lots of love for the shoe. Some of the comments we heard were “They are so affordable, “it’s the most comfortable shoe I’ve ever worn!”, “I love to ride my bike in these,” and the most-heard “How do I get a pair????”

Check back as we continue to recap our SXSW experience. We’ll also be putting up some video in the next couple of days, as well as uploading tons of pics!

In the meantime, check out this gallery of Saturday night’s shuffleboard tournament at JellyNYC’s Texas Garage!
