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.
