ALT ACQUAINTANCE

HITS President Karen Glauber joins the members of her distinguished SXSW panel, “I Wrote That Song,” for a curtain call. Later, they all went to a secret club where there’s a Feelies cover band and Todd Rundgren serves you cookies. Seen being so Alternative it freakin’ hurts are (l-r) Travis’ Fran Healy, Holly Muñoz, Nada Surf’s Matthew Caws, Glauber, Superchunk/Merge Records’ Mac McCaughan, Phases’ Alex Greenwald, Dan Wilson, Phases’ Z Berg and Big Star’s Jody Stephens.
