So if you can't tell by our wall-to-wall coverage, we're pretty damn geeked about the Westword Music Showcase this weekend -- and for good reason. It's our absolute favorite time of year, the time when we get to put the spotlight on our beloved scene and -- more important -- many of the talented acts who make up that scene. We've spent the past few weeks talking to a few of those acts about the scene, the Showcase and more. Continue on to see what they had to say, and then check back all week, as we'll be posting new clips every day. Oh, and buy your tickets now, if you haven't already.
