25 SXSW 2012 Party RSVPs to kick-off festival season!

If you’ve never been to SXSW, let me give you a tip:  You need to get on the FREE party circuit. As anyone who’s been to SXSW knows, all of the beauty and chaos occurs during these events.

Free food. Free booze. And FREE shows–all without a badge!  But here’s the thing tho: They don’t just let any chump off the street into these free galas. You have to RSVP–and FAST, because once the RSVP closes, that’s it. No entry for you!

We’ll be updating the main page of SXSW Free Party RSVPs regularly, so check back. It’s only gonna get more insane.

Feeling overwhelmed? Check out RSVPster, our homies who will do the RSVPing for you.

Not enough party? Head over to SXSHHH. They’ve got ALL the parties.

I’ve been putting this off for the last month. Watching the emails trickle in gave me a special kind of anxiety, RSVP Overload. And maybe a part of me is still recovering from last year.

Yes, yes, call me a slacker. I’ll wear it as a badge of honor. After all, this is the city of slackers. Maybe I’m saving all my energy for TEN days of non-stop party.

So now, with out further ado, here are 25 RSVPs you’ll want to get ASAP. More will be coming all week, so stay tuned!
