SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS SO PLEASE READ via Austinist

Tonight's Austinist Presents Local Music is Sexy party at the Pure Volume House features Ringo Deathstarr, Shapes Have Fangs, Beautiful Supermachines, The Ovenbirds and Dave Madden, and we'd love to see you there.

If you don't have a SXSW badge or wristband, there's a new last-minute policy being enforced at the House this year—presenting a PureVolume badge without an accompanying SXSW credential does not guarantee that you'll get in.

For tonight's private party, we're asking readers to submit an RSVP to us [HERE], or on our Facebook event page. Your RSVP will afford you access for Monday evening.
