Downtown scene

As I was leaving the Hilton of Fourth Street around 10:30 a.m. after interviewing director Kathryn Bigelow for “The Hurt Locker,” I ran into a group of young German hipsters, who wanted to know whether I knew my way around town.

I said yeah. They were wearing SXSW music badges and were a bit scruffy, with poorly grown facial hair.

And they looked at me very seriously and asked, ‘Man, do you know a place where we can just sit down and have our morning beer?’

I pointed them two blocks north to Sixth Street, and they were most appreciative. I predict the bars will have a steady business for the rest of the week.
