I'm-wearing-all-of-the-clothes-I-packed-at-the-same-time chilly. But it was also a day with a full schedule of good music, so festival-goers plugged on gamely.\n\n [\n\n](http://blog.teenvogue.com/industry/blogs/music/assets_c/2010/03/Antlers-38341.html)\n\nMy first stop was the IFC/Crossroads house to see another taping, this time from the Brooklyn band The Antlers. The three-piece released the beautifully devastating Hospice earlier this year. I hadn't seen them live and the intimate IFC taping was a great setting. Listen to songs from the tight group (especially if you're a fan of Band of Horses-style vocals) here.\n\nFrom the taping, I made my way over to Stubbs for the Rachael Ray Feedback party. The event generally boasts an amazing lineup and I hadn't heard much about who was playing, so I was going in blind. First I caught the last few songs from much-hyped LA band Local Natives. The band's debut, Gorilla Manor, came out in the last year and has a Fleet Fos-goes tribal sound. Live, they more than lived up to expectations. Listen here.\n\nfacebook dialogPinterest\n\nAfter Local Natives, Andrew W.K. hit the main stage. I've always been a fan of Mr. W.K., though recent media drama has left a bit of a bad taste in my mouth. (Read about the controversy here.) But his show at Stubbs reminded me that he's not just an intriguing character - he knows how to put on an entertaining show as well. The crowd, by 2:30 p.m., was cold and cranky. But the minute Andrew came on stage, playing only hits from his debut I Get Wet, the mood changed and everyone was having fun. I couldn't help but pogo around when he launched into \"She is Beautiful\" and \"Party Hard.\" Well done, Andrew W.K.\n\nfacebook dialogPinterest\n\nFollowing Andrew's explosive set was no easy task, but Philadelphia indie band Dr. Dog did their best to keep the crowd energized. Playing tunes from their upcoming album, Shame, Shame, the band's harmonies had a devoted crowd from start to finish.\n\nI left Stubbs in search of a warmer locale, but ended up at another outdoor venue. Music website Mog.com hosted one of the more impressive parties in terms of lineup at The Mohawk - and I was lucky enough to get in just in time for a performance from new Shins-Danger Mouse combo Broken Bells.\n\n The Bells played several sets at SXSW and each one had lines around the block. (See my photo of the line snaking around the building even while the band was finishing up their set at the Mohawk, below.) Songs like first single \"The High Road\" prompted a crowd-wide singalong. And lead singer James Mercer seemed much more at ease on stage than he ever was when I saw him leading the Shins. So, right on.  Listen to Broken Bells here.\n\nfacebook dialogPinterest\n\nAfter Broken Bells, Queens, NY outfit Freelance Whales took over the indoor stage. The experimental pop band has a sound any Decemberists fan should check out. Cheery banjo and xylophone tones counter mellow rock guitars for an upbeat, expansive sound.\n\nBack on the main stage, The Antlers took the stage for a more anthemic set than the one I caught earlier in the day. Songs like \"Two\" and \"Sylvia\" still had the same powerful effect in the big open-air space as they did in the tiny studio.\n\nBlog readers, I'm not going to lie. Not long after that last set I started feeling terrible. I don't have any evidence, but I do think something I ate at the Rachael Ray event went wrong on me. I sadly spent the hours from 8 p.m. to 2 a.m. not, as planned, seeing a last set of shows, but holed up in my hotel room keeled over. Bummer.\n\nBut despite some pretty intense food poisoning, I still rate this year's SXSW as one of the best in terms of seeing new talent. You'll surely be reading about some of these artists in the pages of Teen Vogue in the coming months.\n\nDid you go to SXSW? What acts did I miss? Which ones should I try and see when I get home?
