PHOTO GALLERY: NCCU takes on SXSW

You may not have known what the letters stood for, but indeed it was flooding your Twitter timeline.

Any music lover was lost in misery, staying off favorite blogs until the weekend was over.

After 20 hours of riding in a 15-passenger van, I touched down in Austin for the 25th anniversary of the SXSW Music and Media Conference.

The streets of Austin were covered in all things awesome and the venues were taken over by music lovers and modern-day hippies.

I was privileged to  be there.

I witnessed more drunken hot people dancing to the rhythms of the street's drum, as well as some of today's most cherished acts.
