| The award for Best Pissed Off Art Installation goes to this piece outside the Bank of America on 6th. |
We're assuming he meant the everlastingly humid Klub Krucial, and not SXSW. It was too good of a show. So, maybe Cass deserves a Slightly Cantankerous, But Awesome award from yesterday?
After the jump, find our picks for Best Of's from a totally busy, overwhelmingly exciting SXSW Friday, and the above installation art piece that was sandwiched on the corner of a Bank of America. What a day.

| Pujol at Peckerheads, MOKB's day party. |
Rollicking riffs from this Nashville group at My Old Kentucky Blog's Day Party made a sticky, hot bar totally worth it.

| Cass McCombs |
A subtle set from the Pitchfork-loved Californian, which was made less subtle by his quiet, little-bit pissed off "I hate this place" murmur. Nevertheless, it was an excellent set. Whole lot of egg-shaker goin on too.

| Outside the Bank of America on 6th |
Cornered at the intersection of Congress and 6th yesterday was a little bit of pissed-off political art (right next to a Bank of America branch). As you can see, a lot of work went into the piece, no joke.

Walking down 5th street near Colorado, you could have missed it. But there it was! No explanations--merely a line of cooked, tasty looking crawfish arranged in marching ant fashion. Fascinating.
