Austinist SXSW Contest Alert: V.I.P. Treatment @ Mess With Texas 2 (Waterloo Park, 3.15)

Mess With Texas during SXSW last year was a huge hit in the cozy confines of Red 7 and MWT2 promises to be an even bigger bash with a wide variety of musical acts and comedians on tap. Waterloo Park is the host this year and this year’s free, all ages show kicks off at noon on Saturday the 15th. But of course there are so many other day shows, parties, and what not going on in the town that the sponsors (including Forcefield PR, Record Store Day, JetBlue Entertainment, Fuel TV, SuperDeluxe.com, and Garnier Fructis) want to give you V.I.P. treatment if you can write a witty piece of prose. As has been the case with other stellar Waterloo Park shows, local entity Transmission Entertainment has helped organize this brouhaha.

For a chance to win the Grand Prize, email your entry (a sentence, a paragraph, whatever) with details on where you heard about this contest, your location, and your favorite band playing MWT2. And what is this Grand Prize?

$200 Cash
Friday & Saturday March 14th & 15th at an Austin hotel covered
Two cases of Function Drinks
CD's by all the artists and comedians playing Mess With Texas
Silk screened posters by Milano Chow & Raymond Pettibon for Mess With Texas
4 VIP passes to Mess With Texas
+ tons of other stuff

There will also be five runners up, who will receive most of the stuff mentioned above minus the cash and the hotel room! For more information on the event, check the MWT MySpace and also our site later today for a preview by Austinist writer Nick Courtright.

Since when does your name, location and "where you heard about us" constitute a witty piece of prose?

 

can someone post the email address for entries? Clicking on the link messes with my computer.
