At SXSW, you can't be everywhere, and recapping the previous day's goings-on is tough, as festival-goers are generally slow to wake up and locate their clothes, let alone upload videos to the Internet. In any event, we've scoured the web for the highlights from day one (March 12) of SXSW 2013, and while more clips from Tuesday's doings may eventually surface, the following handful of videos give a good indication of what went down in the Texas capital. Rock on!

  • Matt and Kim
