  PJ @ SXSW ’22 “As South by Southwest has grown, it has helped elevate Austin’s reputation worldwide as not only a music destination but also a home for technology and innovation.” – The New York Times After a long weekend of keynote speeches, learning sessions, networking, and so much music, it was good to be back home in Dallas. Here’s a top 5 of my favorite things from my 10 th   SXSW experience, but my first time doing it all by myself. Old friends and new Got to meet up with long-time friend   Matt Sonzala   at a Day Party on the East Side the day I arrived. Anyone who knows hip hop in Austin or Houston (or really, anywhere in Texas) is likely within a 7 degree or less connection with Matt. Not only is he an incredible music writer, radio host and has an awesome podcast, but he’s also worked in all aspects of the music industry including booking, managing tours, and even consulting on film projects. Got to meet his lovely wife and friends including Pamela Andino, Creative Produce
