      Kiss Kiss was the best band there followed by The Venitia Fair. They weren't in your show now, where they?



    11. 11

      Oh wow Perez. You actually did it. Now start doing your job!



    12. 12

      oh, I thought that Limewire was an illegal file-sharing program, am I wrong?



    13. 13

      this is gonna fuel him to think better of himself!
      when actually hes shit. he just doesnt know it.
      Well….. actually he does since hes fat.



    14. 14

      Couldn't care less. The media is full of liars anyway.



    15. 15

      I read one review, Billboard's. There was hardly any mention of you, most was about the other venues. I wouldn't call this review a success but then again, you think any mention of you translates to success - " A bit of chaos reigned at Perez Hilton's annual One Night in Austin party, and he wouldn't have it any other way. Outside the Whitley, a highly accessible downtown venue, those who couldn't get in grew rowdy and spent the night tweeting hateful messages."

      Coming from an Austin native that witnesses cool music stuff all year… you're over- hyped lame ass party did not deliver in regards to " the musical capital of the world" standards. It was an over-hyped, badly product placement bore fest. it was like watching a terrible reality show on E that exists purely on its sponsors. You… Perez… know nothing about music. So stay away from my fair city. Your fame is from bashing celebrities… and now you suddenly in the last few years think you know anything about music. You're at a reach at best relationship with Gaga does not make you in the know. If you want respect ever… at your lame parties… get your BFF Gaga here or stay at home in fucking Lala land where people actually care about you

      Re: sarauuh
      Sorry you were in my town… and waited for that. There was so much more amazing stuff going on… like what SXSW has been about for 23 yrs… than that pathetic shit



    18. 18

      Homerun? Barry Bonds style… lick your sponsors ass Perez. You know you want to… and need to



    19. 19

      I was there and NO it wasn't!!!! After waiting for 2 hours to go 50 feet we left…We got there at 5:45 in line, you must of had 1 chick checking ID's at the dorr cause by 8:30 we still were NOT in and only about 120 people actually got in…IT was horriable…I will never RSVP for this party again due to the lack of people working your door…We had freinds that said they did not get in until 10:45, thats BS and you shoudl NOT be proud!

      Re: TQGUCCI

      I had a dumb badge and walked right in… stayed for 5 min… its everything wrong with SXSW. I wasnt unfortunate to have to wait… in the cold… for nothing. I apologize on behave of Austin Texas… this town is so not Perez. Which is what makes it cool… and what makes is ass not welcome here. You want to experience true Austin Texas SXSW that is not the place… free booze is a flowin everywhere else… better music …. experience my city. You dont come to Austin to get away from the lameness that is LA



    21. 21

      Congrats Perez!! It looked awesome. I love Estelle.



    22. 22

      LMAO. Those are critics? Yeah, let us know when someone who actually knows about music gives you a good review.

      So lame. SXSW has jumped the shark when tubby pink haired Perez is there.



    23. 23

      Define "huge." Are we talking the typical 2-inches-is-7-inches "huge" as defined by some males (especially under-endowed ones like the Parasite has to be), or "huge" the way a woman would? I suspect the former, not the latter, because you're prone to exaggerating your projects, all of which FAIL because you have no talent for anything. Please vanish.



    24. 24

      Whoever organized this event needs to be shot….this was the most disorganized party of the year that left hundreds out in the cold with NO chance of ever getting in….if you call that a success…well….



    25. 25

      You are probably never going to read this but I hope you realize that leaving hundreds upon hundreds waiting out in the freezing cold for at least four hours is not a success. The event was extermly poorly organized! There was no line of communication between the organizers of the party and the people waiting in line. I am huge fan of yours but you need to realize that it was not a success. Next year have it at an bigger venue or don't send out as many tickets!



    26. 26

      HAHA
      You suck
      Mario.



    27. 27

      That was the most ridiculously unorganized "event" I have ever been to. I won a "VIP" pass from the sponsor…I had to wait an hour in the freezing cold to pick up my wristband, and then another 45 minutes to get in the door. There were no signs directing people where to go, and it was just mass confusion. Snoop Dogg was awesome though.



    28. 28

      Biggest clusterfuck ever. Who plans a massive party without toilets? Seriously an hour+ to get to a port-a-potty? You know there's companies who do this sort of thing for a living? Every other venue seemed to figure that out. I wanted to see what the hype was about, then realized there was none. Boooooo.



    29. 29

      Hmmm, I live in Austin and heard that this event was a complete clusterfuck! 25,000 people RSVPd, fire marshalls closed the event at 800 people - do the math. It was 35 degrees and people waited in line for hours (I have no idea why) only to be turned away. I think you really believe your own hype.



    30. 30

      You owe me 4 hours of invaluable sxsw time… and you owe me $4 for the useless printout I had to make at kinkos. I was near the front of the line and witnessed the most disorganized party ever, get your shit together, that was miserable and insulting to your followers. You should be ashamed to make your fans stand out for hours while hundreds of "vips" stroll in. What was the point of the "exclusive" rsvp? Never again will I fall for this BS.

      Not that you give a shit about us folk who "won tickets" standing out in the cold like idiots.



    31. 31

      let's hear from more of the people who decided to waste theit time on this!! god i love it!!



    32. 32

      Don't brag about a review from MTV for gods sake… they don't even involve themselves with music these days and EVERYONE knows it. Your bands were has beens for the sake of humbling how big and amazing you thought your failure of a party was. The wait you talk you'd have thought John Lennon had fallen from the sky and rocked it out… or better yet lame ass Courtney Loves ex Kirk Cobain who is the reason anyone knows her did. Get over youself… and your stupid ass tshirt. you're just as worthless and pathetic as those you talk mad shit about. hopefully a perez hilton mini me comes along soon. you're irrelevant and boring and you're party isnt gonna have the funds next year pal and you know this



    33. 33

      Your one night in Austin … was in a stair well at the Stephen F Austin… with a tranny…



    34. 34

      BA HA HA HA! OHH, YOU CRACK ME UP MARIO!! ARE THESE MUSIC PUBLICATIONS? NOOOO, WHERE IS THE ROLLING STONE OR SPIN CRITIQUE? YOU FUCKING LOSER, AT LEAST PUT SOMEONE REPUTABLE IN THE LIST BESIDES ALL YOUR FUCK BUDDIES WHO YOU PAY TO WRITE ABOUT YOU! DUMBASS!



    35. 35

      I KNOW SOOO MANY PEOPLE/PROMOTERS/MUSICIANS IN AUSTIN AND THEY ALL LAUGHED IT UP AT YOUR EXPENSE MARIO! THEY SAID YOUR PARTY WAS THE MOST UNORGANIZED PIECE OF SHIT THEY HAVE EVER WITNESSED AND THAT ALL YOU CARED ABOUT WAS MAKING SURE YOUR SPONSORS WERE HAPPY AND FUCKING OVER ALL YOUR "FANS" BY MAKING THEM WAIT ENDLESSLY FOR NOTHING! NOT THAT WE ALL DIDN'T KNOW THAT IS ALL YOU CARE ABOUT ANYWAY($$$), YOU FUCKING NO GOOD FAME WHORE! GO SUCK ANOTHER SPONSORS DICK!



    36. 36

      LOL



    37. 37

      Well with all the FAILS you've had in recent years, it's about time you had some small successes. One step at a time hon. One day you might accomplish something good.
