Priming the pump for a week’s worth of debauchery, Beauty Bar gets the buzz started for early SXSW arrivals with a crash course on some of the best bands Austin has to offer. On the outside stage, Belaire lets the sun shine in with infectious indie-tronica and huggable harmonies from last year’s Exploding, Impacting along with desert-folk troubadours Brothers And Sisters and funky art-school aces The Black And White Years. Inside, garage wunderkinds The Strange Boys headline a retro revival that includes souped-up rawk from Those Peabodys and swaggering Southern steez from Scorpion Child. Around 1 a.m., DJs from Austin, London, and Glasgow (and special guests like Yo Majesty’s Shunda K.) kick off a late-night dance party that will ensure you never make it to any of those Wednesday panels. They sounded boring anyway. Also playing: Golden Bear, AM Syndicate, {{{Sunset}}}, Murdocks, Sleeping In The Aviary, Future Clouds And Radar.

With the metrosexual movement on the wane and beards and plaid shirts on the rise, it’s once again safe to take pride in being a man. The free Man Fest (co-presented by indispensable local blog PartyEnds.com an dBirds Barbershop) revels in all things Y-chromosome with arm wrestling competitions, a lumberjack photo booth, old-fashioned shoeshines, a DJ set of fist-pumping “confidence rock” from DJ laser Donkey, dancing by The Confidettes, and a Quien Es Mas Macho?-style competition for those in “full man gear” aided by free Steamworks beer and the manliest alcohol ever squeezed from God’s hairy nipple, Dewar’s Scotch. Local fur flyers Golden Bear close things out with a grizzly set of kitchen-sink pop and toothsome melodies. Put down the depilatory cream, cut off those ladies’ jeans, and grow a pair already.
