You people don't understand. DON'T WASTE MONEY ON BADGES OR BRACELETS!!! See who you want for free during the day, and save your money for coke y smoke.


The big man is right on this one. There were two instances this year where my badge was make-or-break; a badge-only Beastie Boys show @ Stubb's and talking me and jagged into an invite-only Drive-By Truckers show. Every other show I went to could've been entered by the general populace for the price of a ticket.

But I'mma still find a way to cop a press badge next year. It's like sitting in first-class and then going back to coach. Nothin' doin'.

76 posts in the 2.5 hours since this thread started proves the masses want this to happen!

Somebody photoshop LooGAR into Elvis' gold lame' getup for the front of a mock "50,000,000 Elvis Fans Can't Be Wrong" album cover...

You finally showing up for once. THAT'S what's better.

(haha)


hey, shutup. i had every intention of going this year until i got a this damn job! i can't take a week off in my 90-day probation period at a new job. and the year before, blame the best friend for procrastinating. lesson be learned, don't make travel plans with her. ;)

okay i probably won't even waste $ on a badge... probably not even a wristband because i'll do the individual ticket route since i can try to use connects at work to get in the shows i want. so really, i guess all i need is booze & airfare $ and a place to stay but if people here are making hotel arrangements, i'm down to chip in if there's room.

I'm 100% percent sure I'll be there... which means I'll be drunk here in Dallas.

Now if you were to PM me about a show here at home I'll tell you I'll be there 100%... which means I'll be at Oak Lawn shooting heroin in the women's restroom of a men's only bar.

This would be cool, but I don't even know what my life is going to be like in March.

First off, it's not a festival in the Lollapallooza sense. No fields to be stood in, or anything like that. Austin has hundreds of bars along the 6th street strip near downtown, and every one of these bars hosts multiple shows by just about every band you can name.

Regardless, you know WE are the real draw for you, anyway. The Elizabet Ney Museum is in Austin, if you really need to get your fine art fix.

You cover your flight, and we'll take care of the rest.

SXSW will be cancelled if you don't come.

Don't worry, you'll still be able to see the Illini and Terps in the NIT well after SXSW has ended.

In all seriousness, everyone, if anime dweebs and trekkie shut-ins can somehow get their shit together enough to congregate at least once a year, can't we make this happen??? We talk about doing this every year, and only and handful of people end up making in.

THIS IS THE TIME TO TURN THE DREAM INTO REALITY.

I'm about 99.9% in on this. I'd buy my airline tix now if I had the cash. I'll probably have to wait until december when I clean up on Xmas tips to buy a ticket and car rental. Colin already said I could crash at his place but from the looks of this thread, it's gonna be the Garmada.

i'm trying to convince the man, but he's not thrilled about the idea of an internet strangers slumber party.

we were planning on going somewhere in march, though, and if it ends up being cuba like i want, a one or two night stop in texas is not out of the question...

Is this Radisson near the Main Nerve of this thing? I'm looking into it as we speak.

I just looked it up on a map and all the shows and stuff are around 6th street so the Radisson is within stumbling distance.
