- I loved how David Byrne didn't do a practice run before he did his presentation.
02:45PM Idiots Unite! (12AB)
- Granted it was a good panel, but all I really remember was Jeff Castelaz kept name dropping Silversun Pickups any chance he got.
04:30PM Hell on Wheels (Alamo Downtown) Highly Recommended
- Five years in the making, about the sorted history behind the TXRD Lonestar Rollergirls and Texas Rollergirls.
11:59PM Borderland (Alamo Downtown) Highly Recommended

02:00PM What Do You Want From Life? (12AB)
