More than halfway through the week, we're still live-blogging South By Southwest — the good, the bad and the very, very loud. Follow Daily Texan reporters, photographers and editors as we post the highlights of our work here. For minute-to-minute coverage of the best and the worst that SXSW has to offer, follow us on Twitter at @thedailytexan. Want a recap of Wednesday at SXSW? Check out our coverage on yesterday's blog.

Update (11:50 p.m.): Day seven of South By Southwest is rapping up. Friday's forecast looks dim, with a flash flood warning going into effect in the afternoon. After so much music, film and talks, even the most enthusiastic festival-goer is probably looking for a respite. If you want to spend your rainy Friday away from the crowds and hustle of SXSW, check out our list of out-of-town getaways.

Update (8:00 p.m.): It's easy to get lost in the mayhem of South By Southwest. Even though the festival is more than halfway finished, there is always more than meets the eye. We compiled a list of Twitter accounts that can keep you informed on all the happenings around Austin and SXSW. To read the list, click here.

Update (4:35 p.m.): “Lamb” paints a haunting tale about two people who simply don’t know what their relatioship is or means.  The film rattles conceptions of childlike innocence and tells a divisive tale that is either oddly charming or donwright unsettling. Read the full review here.
