I even brought a light sweater - you know, just in case. What on earth was I thinking? Chilly nights out-on-the-town? ;) And jewelry...! I'll never take jewelry on a trip again... Two pairs of hose got a free trip from California to Austin and back (never used them in Austin - promptly returned them to department store when I got back). Anyways. Glad you had a good time. ;) Best, SD Your list of stuff you brought that you didn’t need is almost identical to my experience. I even brought a light sweater – you know, just in case.

Living in Austin, I didn't have to worry about the clothes, so that was good. I want to get one of the power squids for the next time as they pack easier than a standard strip does. It took a good day or two to recover from being "on" for four days straight. My first SXSW trip I failed to bring along extra camera batteries and a powerstrip.
