No Mas Bodas album release + Cheer Up Charlies
No Mas Bodas has always been known for being more eclectic & experimental in nature. In anticipation of their recent album release and their release party at Cheer Up Charlies, I present to you a short interview with the group. Let's hear what they have to say about their music.
I asked a couple of broad questions to see what the ladies had to say, and what I got back was a poem of imagery. Check them out at Cheer up, Charlies tonight!

AIB: Describe your new album, what is it all about?
No Mas Bodas: Glitter and doom.
A Mardi Gras bead tossed at the groin.
Mind expansion.
Lipstick-smeared space helmets.
Love made under a distant planet's moon.
Watercolor eyes.
What is No Mas Bodas all about -- on stage and off?
Full-throated, voluptuous laughter.
Women worship.
Boundary humping.
Girls peeing off rooftops.
City fountain skinny dipping.
Tickling and tons of groping.
Now just in 5 words:
It's the future, ohhhh...oh.

AIB Neiliyo Exclusive
Photos by Annie Ray
Neiliyo + Springtime + Games
In anticipation of Neil Petty's, AKA Neiliyo's, new EP Game Night, I have conducted an Austin is Burning exclusive interview with the man. He has also written and recorded a song for the blog -- it's a very intimate recording of a jam session in home, just for us.
His new game-themed album is releasing this Saturday night at his EP Release Party at Club Deville, with supporting acts Fizzy Dino Pop & Team Fabrication DJs. In order to get y'all pumped for this event, I have for you "Springtime," an AIB-exclusive song from Neiliyo, a demo of "Hopscotch" from his EP, and he's answered a few questions for me about the new EP.
Enjoy!

Enjoy!
AIB: Somebody on do512 described your music as "yacht rock meets coked out Mick Jagger." Do you think that encompasses your real life personality, too?
Neiliyo: Eh...yes and no. I definitely spend more time creating new beats and songs than I do yachting and living like Jagger. But I also am probably the most hyperactive out of all of my friends. I dunno, I have lots of energy for some reason.
What is your favorite song on this upcoming EP of yours?
Hopscotch. It was one of those, "how did this end up like that" songs. The beat kind of has this "jumping" rhythm.
Hopscotch by neiliyo
You say that this upcoming EP features songs about games like hopscotch and spin-the-bottle? What's your favorite game?
My favorite game from the past didn't actually make the EP because it's kind of complex. It's called M.A.S.H. While I can't really remember the fine details of how to play, I know you drew this vortex-like pattern and counted the gaps between the circles. Then you predicted whether you would live in a house, mansion, shack or apartment, and what you'd drive. I thought it was a great one to play with the girls - very aspiring.
Name three songs that would be on your desert island soundtrack?
Dam Funk - I Gots 2 Be Done Wit' You
Washed Out - Belong
Kleeer - Intimate Connection
Assuming your songs reflect your real life: From songs like "Kinda Pissed" to "I Can't Date" to "Ain't Over" -- how do your songs with romantic themes reflect your love life?
I guess you could say they're more induced by my past experiences. I think most of us can recall about 90% of the people we went out on dates with or really liked, so I like to pick the little feelings from those and write about them. Not necessarily the person it had to do with, but more like the situations and the feelings. I think people relate to that more.
Who is your favorite local band/DJ/musician?
YellowFever is pretty awesome to me right now.
What do you want to see happen in 2010?
I want to see more ideas coming out of Austin. It's a good time for this city right now, it just depends on what we do with it.
What do you want to see happen at your EP release party?
I want to see some winners, dancers, gamers, geeks and peeps get up on the good foot.
Last words to your fans:
Forget about the stage! We're all friends and we're a team.

Rare's on web
Check out the newly improved Rare Magazine web page. It looks great! Also, ready my Fashion Freakout coverage in the blog section. Tonight, they are celebrating this relaunch at Frank.
SXSW 2010
Announcement:
Remember last year? Well, I am doing the same thing this year essentially with SXSW '10 as I did then. I will be posting RSVPs and show fliers as they come to me -- the really good stuff that is -- and tagging them with the SXSW tag. Thus, you can find my tags to the right and just click on that to get my comprehensive SX list without having to sift through my other posts.
*Remember to make sure you are not looking at something from 2009.
Now some eye candy and clothing inspiration for the spring:
