Village Voice's Free SXSW Day Party Announced: M. Ward, Cursive, Gomez

He's impatiently waiting for SXSW too

Every year, the event-planning honchos at Village Voice Media throw a Friday afternoon shindig during South by Southwest. Once again this year, it'll be completely, unequivocally free and held at La Zona Rosa, a spacious 4th-Street venue that knuckleheads think it's creative to call La Coka Nostra. Last year, the VVM party starred such fine rollicking luminaries as the Black Keys, Trail of Dead, and Health--this year, we are here to announce that M. Ward, Cursive, Gomez, and Bear Hands will be your musical hosts. It all takes place on Friday, March 20 from noon to 5pm, with set times to be announced. Get excited, dudes: Hold Time is an amazing hangover helper.

Dan says:

there is no list or RSVP at these free shows, you gotta show up and get in line. No badges, No nothin. Most of the day parties are like this.

Wade says:

Dan!

You are WRONG.

This was an RSVP show last year, so many of us assume it will be again.

last year it was free to get in, but to get into the VIP section in the back, there was an RSVP list.

Soooooooooooo.....I was wrong, or???

"As a super-veteran of SXSW"...I can't wait to give you directions.

I go to non-RSVP Day parties every day fo SXSW, every year. I am able to see every single band that I want to, with nothing around my neck or wrist. SEE YOU AT LA ZONA ROSA! I'll be the guy who looks like he knows what he is doing.
