Murray and his Electric Copper hair
I will putting my celebrity sighting goggles on tomorrow, because I will actually be oot and aboot downtown since that is when the Music portion of South by Southwest kicks off. I’m not important enough to have one of those fancy badges, but I did get my hands on a lowly wristband, so I will be making my rounds downtown to check out the scene. Last year I caught personal glimpses of Neil Patrick Harris, Janeane Garofalo and THE bachelor but the most memorable star sighting was at some random no-name show where I saw Rhys Darby who plays the manager on Flight of the Conchords, I asked him if he was at the show to find New Zealand’s fifth most popular digi-folk paradists. He didn’t find it as hilarious as I did…
Rumor has it
In the never ending parade of actors who think they can sing, Kevin Costner will be bringing his band to Austin on February 5th at Antones. You can have a sneak preview of this spectacle
here, before you get your tickets to the show. Apparently Kevin has a house in Austin, but that’s not saying much as to how much time he actually spends here. He is a close friend to Longhorns baseball coach Augie Garrido, (who currently is dealing with some legal issues) and cast him in his film For Love of the Game. And speaking of that movie, I thought it was my duty to share with you all a random fact that I happened upon while scouring Wkipedia. Kevin’s frontal nude scene in For Love of the Game was reportedly deleted after being met with laughter at a test screening. You’re welcome for that.
