@escarp turned two, today (at 10:34:15 AM CST, to be precise). It’s been quite the journey. 

Work on escarp began when the clouds opened briefly about two weeks before Spring Break, on March 3rd in Lubbock, Texas and went live from a friend’s dining-room table in Austin, Texas (Thanks, Beth (aka MEGABETH!)) It was mostly coincidence, of course, that the site launched in the middle of SXSW (we certainly don’t have the cash to attend in any official manner), though we did manage to fail horribly to catch The Cool Kids at an off-site show in Austin (but succeed thoroughly in finding 6th Street.)

In the two years since we’ve grown from a one-person operation to a five-person panel currently spread across four states. For all we’ve grown, though, we’re always limited by our ability to find passionate individuals to help out. We’d like to use the occasion, this anniversary, to test the waters. If you’d like to be involved, drop us a line through Tumblr or Twitter. Let us know what you’d like to bring to the project.
