Y'ALL COME BACK, NOW, Y' HEAR?

We're so glad we had this time together ... just to have a laugh or sing a song. Seems we just get started and before you know it, comes the time we have to say, "So long!" Snifffff! Well, our own personal ear-pull is actually the X in the middle of our byline: That X is a sincere and heartfelt thank-you aimed at a few mentors, just like this sincere and heartfelt thank-you is aimed at you, dear visitor. OK, here we are at the end of SXSW. We're in the home stretch! You can doooo eeeet! Come on! We wanna see you passed out on a picnic blanket this Sunday. What?! You booked your flight for today?! You'd better get online and change that sucker, or you'll be so sad once you see all the pics come Monday. By the way, we'll be posting lots of pics on Monday. And also, by the way, keep following us from home. We love that. And we love you! See you at GayBiGayGay? Write to us (we love that, too!) gayplace@austinchronicle.com. Follow our antics all year long at: austinchronicle.com/gay.

Many thanks to Neha Aziz, Rob Cohen, Nina Hernandez, and Sarah Marloff for massive SXSW assistance.

SAN MARCOS PRIDE 2014 NEEDS YOU! Hey, SXSWers! You may not know, but Austin has a sweet li'l college-town sister just south of here in San Marcos.

The kids behind Rainbow Night have been hard at work getting this together for mid-2014, and all's they need is you.
