I'll be there online, while on STAGE at the Austin Convention Center (Ballroom G), in a live DJ Battle with 4 legitimate DJs!! I'm no real DJ, so I'll need all the support I can get!
I expect all of my online friends to be there supporting me. If you don't come, you're dead to me! ;)
And if you happen to have a SXSW BADGE, mosey on over & see me IRL! You can Awesome my songs from the Turntable.fm iPhone app!!

FAQ:
Q: "Must I have a SXSW badge/wristband to attend?"
A: BADGES are only allowed into Ballroom G of the Austin Convention Center. If you don't have that, just go to the Turntable.fm room
http://turntable.fm/bigshotdj_battle_room_1 on a computer OR via the iPhone App!
Q: "Why are you in this SXSW showcase if you're not a real DJ like your opponents??"
A: I am there to represent the average Turntable.fm user... Trust me, I tried really hard to back out once I realized who I was going against! But I was urged to embrace this and represent the average TT-er. So that is what I will do! Thanks Ali!! <3
Q: "Do I have to have a Turntable.fm account?"
A: Turntable.fm relies on Facebook or Twitter to log in. Just go to
http://turntable.fm and login with either one. You can choose a username & a cute-ass avatar in the Settings. (after 100 points, you can be an Orange Bear, like me!)
Q: "What are those things on your head??"
A: If you're seeing me live, I'll be wearing my Orange Bear ears made by the lovely Elizabeth Warren (Shins_fan on TT)! This is an homage to the Orange Bear avatar.
Q: "What is OBPI?"
A: My home room on Turntable.fm is Orange Bear Party Indie (aka OBPI). It is a cult––I mean ROOM––where we all choose the path––I mean AVATAR––of the Orange Bear.
