The only thing that is missing from my life right now is a pass (or two) to the Spin party.

I guess I will join the masses and ask for my passes here as well. Although I assume the "click here" link was actually supposed to do something.

How do become one of the lucky few who receives on of the "loads of passes to the invite only event"?
This would be an amazing show to peep during the day, especially Hot Leg! What?! Whoever thought they'd make it out to SXSW?!
