The local SF, We Built This City Blog reported earlier today about an incident at SXSW in which two people were killed and 23 injured when an allegedly drunk driver plowed into a crowd.
Hi friends & family, just trying to spread the word that A and I are fine, although we’d been in that exact spot (waiting outside the Mohawk to see X) about an hour earlier. The venue was at capacity and was operating on 1-in-1-out so, with about 40 badge holders in line ahead of us, we decided to skip it and see something else (thank you to Painted Palms for luring us to the showcase at Maggie Mae’s instead!). I’m currently looking out our hotel room window onto the intersection of Red River and 10th, and the intersection is still blocked off and there’s some leftover debris but it’s otherwise quiet down there. Thinking positive thoughts for the people who are hospitalized tonight.
