The LP Questionnaire/Pick Three - Andrew W.K.

awk andrew strasser.jpg
I am super excited that Andrew W.K. did an LPQ/Pick Three and I don't even like to party hard. I do think he's pretty adorable, though, and kind of radiates the sweet.

Andrew was born in Stanford, California and moved to the Los Angeles area when he was two . He grew up in Ann Arbor, Michigan, though, and has lived in New York since he was 18.

Comedians Paul Scheer and Nick Kroll Bring Laughs to The SoBe Lizard Lounge

sobe.jpgThe SoBe Lizard Lounge brought SXSW attendees a laugh thanks to special appearances from comedians Paul Scheer and Nick Kroll. They each stepped into the role of "Mr. Vicarious" and lived vicariously through their SoBe cohorts as they roamed around Austin for the day interacting with (and pulling a few pranks on) the lucky few that cross their paths.

All the fun was taped and broadcasted live in the SoBe Lizard Lounge where guests watched in real-time alongside Mr. Vicarious.

The LP Questionnaire/Pick Three - Bobby Bare Jr.

bare jr.jpegYou may know that Bobby Bare Jr. was nominated for a Grammy at the tender age of eight (with this father for the song "Daddy What If").

You may not know that he was a train engineer when he was 19 years old - of a real train - at Opryland USA in 1986.

Or that he is afraid of elves.
