'Missed Connections' At SXSW: Dramatic Readings

During South By Southwest every year, thousands of people from around the world descend on Austin, Texas for concerts, conferences... and connections. Missed connections, to be precise. Yes, we're sure there are people actually hooking up during SXSW -- but there are also apparently a lot of people who are trying to hook up, and failing at it pretty miserably.

Soundcheck trolled the "Missed Connections" section of Austin's Craigslist for SXSW-related posts and found some real gems -- proving that even in age of instantaneous Tinder hookups, some still like to find love the old fashioned way.

Take a listen to members of the Soundcheck team reenacting some of those posts below.
