“So just let me introduce myself”

Before you wonder who the mystery author from the last post is, let me issue my introduction:

I’m Stephanie, brand new to writing for the Metroblog, and a Houstonian to the core.

I grew up in Clear Lake, but now reside in the Montrose area. I love the Houston area music scene, going to a movie alone at the Angelika or the Greenway, shooting photos of the sculpture garden at night and walking from my apartment to Cafe Brasil’s.

So yeah, hello! I swear I’m friendly so say hi if you run into me. :)

Noise & Smoke

For those of you unwilling or unable to attend SXSW out in Austin, fear not!

Tonight and tomorrow you can just pretend you’re at Stubb’s or Emo’s. Notsuoh and the Axiom are hosting Houston’s own Noise and Smoke Festival. With plenty of good music and sure to be a good atmosphere, bands such as Bring Back the Guns, Satin Hooks, Indian Jewelry and the Sporatics will bring the noise to Space City and console us Houstonians who can’t shell out the bucks for a badge to the upcoming Austin festival.

Come on out and raise a Lonestar to Texas’ own “not quite as weird” city. $8, all ages, music starts at 6pm Friday night and 8pm Saturday.
