From fashionable feathers to truck-stop rock, here are some of our best "out and about" photos from the past couple days (check out our On the Street Photo Gallery for more SXSW weirdos):

[Singer-songwriter Dave Thies redefines DIY by playing an "intimate" set from the back of a pick-up truck. According to his homeless-style sign, he's the "number one acoustic songwriter in Sicily" — over there, he plays out of stretch limos.]

[Left: Bianca Malino and Leslie Moore possibly got lost on the way to Spring Break. Right: Lou Reed follows up his SXSW keynote speech with an interesting bit of performance art.]

[The member of California emo group No Bragging Rights on the far left is definitely reconsidering college right now.]
