Idolator has made it to Austin, and we’re ready to report on a week of blogger parties, MySpace meetups, and (we hope) finger-lickin’ Texas barbecue. We’re going to spend the next few hours poring over the phone-book-sized schedule of showcases and parties that we, along with Idolator’s chief assumer Andy Beta, will be running to during the next week or so; in the meantime, if you have any extra-hot SXSW-related news or gossip, drop a line to our SXSW tipline.

If you want the real deal bbq in Austin, hit the Salt Lick.
Stubbs isn’t just a music venue; get some BBQ there, too. I recommend the pork tenderloin and beef brisket. You can thank me later.
