words and pictures by Brian Solis

During SXSW, Richard Binhammer of Dell (RichardAtDell) organized the now infamous AllHat party along with David Armano, Hugh MacLeod, Mark Collier, Mark Drosos and yours truly.
Hundreds of geeks took the wagon trail over to Allens Boots where we shopped for hats, boots, and socialized in the aisles. Following the in store fun, the cavalry hit the outside patio of Gueros where we enjoyed mouth watering TexMex and memorable conversations.
I’ll let the pictures tell the rest of the story…
