No, no, it's not what you think. You won't be seeing "Picks & Sleepers" for another 50 weeks or so. This is just an exit poll from our Music staff on what their favorite showcase of SXSW 02 was. Me, my personal fave was the Briefs at the Red Room on Saturday. There. Now, we're done with SXSW. Finally. Now I can go and pass out.
