Here are just a few of the bands we were fortunate enough to have at Guero’s for SXSW 2010. We would like to thank all the artists and musicians who came out to play this year.

Mike Galaxy Presents Imagine Dragons – SXSW 2010

Mike Galaxy Presents V Sparks – SXSW 2010

Monte Carlo – SXSW 2010

Suzanne Sherwin – SXSW 2010

On his foodie blog “Super Asada“, blogger Bob Banks recounts his many dining experiences during SXSW. One place he highlights more than once is Guero’s. Bob says we’re good, we’re cheap, and we make the best margaritas anywhere.

…So with heaps of praise and Hollywood floozies hanging out there it’s easy for a bitter man like me to hate on a place like Guero’s.

But I can’t.

Because the food is really good, really cheap, and they make some of the most hyper-bitchin margaritas you’ll ever get.

We would like to personally thank Bob Banks and the many thousands of people who came to Guero’s during SXSW. We had a great time seeing everybody and we hope your experience with us was a good one. Don’t be a stranger, come back and see us again real soon!
