We're wild and we have kids. But our kids are old enough that we could go. It would be so cool!!!! Kisses for all!!

i am a teacher at a private school and that means "no MONEY"

I live in Austin and work for Habitat for Humanity. I don't have the money to buy my own ticket and I would love nothing more than to have a VIP ticket to ACL this year! Oh man, that'd be too cool!

I really want to be there in the moment!

I deserve to win because, "I am the Walrus."

when i gotta go, i gotta go. you know?

Because I want to prove that ACL is better than Bonnaroo, Rothbury, Lollapalooza and SummerCamp and this is the best way to prove it

I'm bringing my friend from Australia as he has raved about the music festivals they have in Australia all the time. I think it would be great to let him see how we have our music festivals in Austin VIP style!

I should win those tickets because i have never been to ACLF before...and i believe in Miracles!

I just lost my job and have two hundred dollars to last me a month? Could use some relaxation right now...

I am a believer that anything is possible. We all deserve it. All I know is that I will be so ecstatic and extremely appreciative and thankful if I win this. Cheers Blastro/Roxwel/AT&T for this once in a lifetime opportunity!!

I opened a fortune cookie today and it said, “Your present plans are going to succeed.” Although it might be foolish to look to a cookie for words of wisdom, I took it into consideration and thought that sometimes you have to take a leap of faith and attempt something you never thought was possible. I’ve lived in the Austin area going on 7 years now and being the typical roman noodle college student/recent grad, I didn’t think it was possible that I would be able to go to ACL this year…that is until I decided to enter this contest. I am going to tell you why I deserve these tickets and it’s not because my fortune cookie told me so!

No, Im not dying…
No, I didn’t save a family from a burning fire…
No, I didnt just get married/divorced/engaged etc…
Nor did I break my arm saving a busload of school children from a sinking battleship…

Simply put, I am a SpUnKy Texas native with a love for music and Austin. Most importantly, I know how to keep it rockin’!!!

I just cycled over 4500 miles from Austin,Texas to Anchorage,Alaska in order to find a cure for cancer. I've spent the last year as part of an organization that raised over $350,000 for cancer research at MD Anderson, and raised over 1 million in the last five years! My family is just now adjusting after Hurricane Ike decided to rampage our city, and I'm about to graduate after fours years of science classes! My legs are super tired, but I'm positive a three-day adventure at ACL could fix that.

Sounds like fun!

I don't deserve these tickets. They should go to Ike evacuees. However, if chosen I would promise to donate time to Ike evacuee shelters such as the Austin Convention Center.

I am a teacher. God bless me.

I just survived raising a teenage daughter. She didn't get pregnant, she graduated high school, she hasn't ever been arrested, and although she drove me absolutely crazy from age 12-17, I didn't kill her. I deserve a reward. :)

I am a big music fan and have never missed an ACL Festival year or day. I would love to go VIP. I would represent Roxwel to the best of my ability. I would tell everyone that I met that I won the tickets from your fine company and also pass out cards for you if needed. I am a hard worker and will not let you down.
If I won, I would also donate my tickets that I currently have to a couple that have lost everything from Hurrican Ike and is currently housed at the Austin Convention Center or the DelCo Center.
Hope to hear back from you soon.
Smiles.

hello everyone and acl. If I could have only one wish. It would be that everyone get exactly what they deserve. peace and love zoppy

shooter genning rocks my world

I'm a music addict, it is every part of my being and it is what helps me get through every day. I've always wanted to go to ACL but have some how missed it every year. I was determined to go this year, but those plans got canceled when my best friend called me saying she was getting married this summer. Thus all my money has gone to fly to California to watch her get married to her soul mate. I wouldn't trade any minute of it I loved my trip and the wedding was beyond beautiful. I'm so bummed that I won't be able to attend this year, it's always been a dream of mine and the line-up this year is unbelievable, full of the most amazing artists from every genre. I'd give anything to be able to attend such a phenomenal event.

I just got laid off, my boyfriend dumped me and I am stuck in a city I hate. There would be nothing better than going to see some of my favorite bands in my favorite city in Texas to help me stay positive. This would mean the world to me right now. Not to mention the fact that I have never won anything ever!!

My boyfriend is a music aficionado. I wanted to take him as a surprise, but waited to late too get tickets. It would be a lifetime memory to do ACL fest VIP.

I absolutely love music. I love Austin. Both feed my soul. I am an artist and would love to take in all that is Austin...because ACL is what Austin is about.

Music heals the soul and I am in need of some soul healing! I should win the tickets because I have never had the opportunity to go to ACL. I just graduated college, I don't have a JOB and I don't have the money to buy tickets.

I have never done much in my life. lived simply and honestly love music and would love the chance to go first class once in my life

I deserve to win cause all I do is work I have oldest son in college n it has put a huge financial burden on me so im working three jobs n I NEED N DESERVE A concert cause I cant afford tickets

I watched the arcade fire on austin city limits and fell in love not only with a phenomenal live band but also with the individuals in the audience. I'm from Columbus/akron ohio and I'm one of the few people at shows around here who actually feel the music and when i saw that audience...i felt at home!....and i've got a friend in norman, ok who i've promised to visit, so this would be a perfect time to drive west!

*Music is where my heart wanders and my soul resides*

i beleave that i deserve them cause me and my wife are disabled and we dont get out much ,but most of all cause we love country music .thank you very much.mark a martinez

I've only been to one concert in my life and frankly have never been too impressed by this whole "live music" fad. That said, after waiting for open air concerts to go the way of Furbies, I realized that this contest gives me a chance to deprive some pot-addle, crocs-wearing trust-afarian of the chance to relive the 90s and pretend that Blues Travelers are cool.

Also, I recently broke my leg saving a busload of schoolchildren from a sinking battleship.

love country music

I'd sure love to take my wife to ACL for our anniversary. She went to school in Texas and hasn't been back in a while. She's a great mom and I'd never be able to do anything like this to show her how much I appreciate her. Thanks for running this contest!

ExBoyfriend always goes VIP and I used to go, It is the very best way to go to the festival. If I win I could also go!!!!I can't afford it this year as I was layed off 7 months ago and can't find a job! I need a lucky break!!!

My friend's birthday is September 27th and she is going to ACL alone...I would love to be able to not only go with her, but to take her in true VIP style!

My best friend's boyfriend was recently killed in a car accident. I deserve to win because taking her to ACL to see some of her favourite artists would be an amazing way to get her mind off such tragic event.

1) Travelling over 2000 miles from Canada for ACL
2) Doing ACL as our honeymoon....1 year late
3) If I win, I'll raffle off/sell my regular 3-day passes and donate the proceeds to the charity of Roxwel/Blastro's choice

Its sounds like so much fun, i've never been to ACL but have been to SXSW twice while visiting family. If its anything like that, I can't even imagine....

simply put, roxwel is amazing for allowing it. and apparently i'm the first one to recognize that. so i should win them.

I want to win because I can't afford to go this year and have been to every other acl festival since it started. I should get some VIP treatment for that kind of loyalty.

This VIP Tickets would be the best thing to get for my 21st birthday. Getting to hear awesome music, FINALLY being able buy a drink... LEGALLY! Besides, I promised my girlfriend that I would take her to ACL for our anniversary and she already told me that if I don't she'll assasinate me. :) Thanks for the opportunity!!!! Kris

Why not?

Kristi Lee rocks. I love her!

Besides the fact that I am willing to endure the Texas Heat for some of my favorite artists, here are a few more reasons....
a] I will not bring a chair to try to blockade other fans from moving closer to the stage. I'm not that jackass.
b] I have no rugrats, so I won't put those non-existent angels in the danger of the burning heat. So you won't here their non-existent cry.
b] I will not be one of those morons that downs whiskey and tons of beer, only to waste the experience being knocked out drunk on a blanket somewhere in the middle of zilker park.
c] I have gone EVERY year since [what year was it before the killers became egotistical douches?]...well, that year, when they were playing at 1pm Friday and about 15 people were in front of the stage...Oh, that was the year of the pixies as well <3
d] Even though I couldn't understand a WORD bob dylan was singing, I stayed. Because its motherf****ing Bob Dylan!
and e] E for EFFORT!!
plus i'm broke. :]

I've made it to every one of the festivals. Truly dedicated. Love the variety of lineup. And after going after all these years, would like a chance to sit down and enjoy the VIP area. It really is worth the $800 dollar tickets. A magical experience and now that the three day tickets are sold out. All I have to say is that it would be a dream come true!!

I haven't missed one yet.

is there any other reason than i just love live music and am broke?

Put simply the ACL without me is like 6th street without Leslie, alot of fun but no cherry to top it all off!! Whether you give me the ticket or not, its Rock n Roll baby I'm def there!!

(Now with proper line breaks). I don't have four kids___and I'm not a bride-to-be,___but I do know this:______ACL is the___ greatest weekend of the year.___I'd love to be there!______My mouth salivates___at thoughts of David Byrne and___Gogol Bordello.______I want to dance to___MGMT and see my faves,___Tegan and Sara.______In haiku form I___plead that you consider me___for this wondrous prize.

In haiku form I
plead that you consider me
for this wondrous prize.

I need a good time. I love music, all kinds even though I am 51. I just broke up my abusive relationship and need to go somewhere and do something that will start to make my life over. I am still young and would like to enjoy life the way I should. Thanks for letting me enter. That is step one.

This is going to be an incredible year for ACL Fest and I want to be there for it. I love promoting companies like Blastro that provide cutting edge solutions to share and enjoy music and videos online. Just point me in the direction of who you want to tell.

Because I believe MUSIC IS LIFE!!! Robert Plant is a golden god and Alison Kraus sings like an angel. My roommate also lives for music, and its her birthday - I could never get her anything this cool on my own, and she could never afford to go. I would LOVE to give her both these tickets for her birthday, and for being such a great roommate for 6 years!!!

My husband and I love music and try to go every year but with a new baby and another one on the way it just is not financially possible this year. Winning tickets would be such an awesome thing for us to get to spend a little quality time before the new baby gets here. Love our kids but music holds a very special place in our hearts as well and with 3-day passes our spirits sure would be lifted.

I grew up listening to a lot of these artists and being able to see them is a dream. And besides, I live in Laredo, TX... it's music deprived and I WANT TO HEAR SOME REAL, GOOD MUSIC!!

PLEASE!!!!

Thanks a lot for the opportunity,
Sam.

Sounds great! Austin is the new music capital in the U.S., I hear. I'm unemployed and it would give me a lift!

This is my last year in Austin as I'm leaving for school next year. I also just got engaged in August... This would be a great way to spend my last ACL with my new fiance.

Just be in "austin city limits" would be a dream come through! I have cancer so it is probably my last chance to go!

& Manu Chau

I wanna see the Black Keys!

I have been a Robert Plant fan since I first saw Led Zeppelin in 1973. I have followed his solo career ever since. I took my son to his first concert to see Robert Plant, which started him playing guitar. Robert has introduced me to various other music, with his wide range, and as a person who cannot live without music, I truly appreciate his contribution to music and to his enrichment of music in my life.

music is my first love and it will be my last so i just gotta be at this contest

id love to let my parents go check this out as they are big fans and love musical events.

I met my good friend Angie on "myspace" and we went to the Raleigh, NC show. We found each other from our "Zeppelin" friend in Italy, "Pietro". Who I sent their CD and T-shirt,program book

I met my good friend Angie on "myspace"

My huband and I are big music fans. We enjoy watcing show.But, I especially am a huge Robert Plant fan and would love to see him again in concert. It has been 5 years since I've seen him, and that's way too long. He and Allison are not going to make to Florida this tour....maybe next time. And this would be a great way to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary!

My wife Rita and I have been keeping the Austin spirit alive in Massachusetts for the last 4 years... in fact, we have so much Austin in the heart we even moved to Austin St, just outside of Boston! It was meant to be. Not to mention the fact that our 16 month old daughter Keeps It Weird on a regular basis. We haven't been able to bring her back to TX yet, and ACL would be an unbelievable place to introduce her to the best city and some of the best music in the states! That, and nobody up here makes a Mexican Martini worth a damn... Help us make it happen, roxwel!-Mike and Rita

Love that ACL is featured on Roxwel! Love Austin!

I just moved to Austin a few days ago from a small town in Wisconsin. I am going to be a freshman at UT, and I cannot think of a better way to get to experience Austin. This would be the best welcome ever! I love the lineup and would be ecstatic about winning these tickets. It would be the perfect opportunity to meet new people, see more of Austin, and hear outstanding music!

I am a recent graduate from the University of Texas at Austin that moved out to California. While in Austin I attended past ACL festivals which were by far the most memorable concerts I had experienced. Unfortunately, because of high costs, I have been unable to visit Texas and my alumni city of Austin. As an actor and past Texas Longhorn, I feel I would be able to use your tickets to not only have a great time but possibly return a favor to Roxwel. Thank you for your consideration and recognition of events in little 'ol Texas, where the bar-b-que is amazing and the music never stops playing. Hook 'em

No Matter how much I get knocked for liking Country Music, I continue to support and adore the talents found within the Country music sector!! Only the closeminded idiots of the world, who don't even give it a fair go, wouldn't like it!!Country music has so much to offer now-a-days and I've never really understood the reason why so many bag-it! It has such a diversity, that I'm sure people would respond to, if only they would listen with out the 'stigma' clouding their judgement!!I live in a coastal town in Australia where country music just isn't accepted......so of course where ever I go I 'crank-it'(my country music) as loud as I can (with my Awesome car stereo) and try to indulge people's subconscieous with the 'pure, inspirational, thought-provoking, raw, uninhibited genious' known as Country music!!!!Now doing my little bit for the country music industry I thought it would be a lovely gesture to widen my knowledge and passion with a visit to the ACL Fest, I thank you for the oppotunity to fullfill my destiny!!(Chuckle)Yours Faithfully Tarlz (tarlzm@gmail.com)

Hello Roxwel Representatives:Please give those ticket to my husband and I...we have a 4 year old and a 10 month old. I, Sheri, stay home with these two beautiful little boys and don't get to get out much at all..especially to concerts. My husband and I LOVE live music and LOVE many of the bands coming to ACL. We will also be married for 12 years on September 14th and WOW would this be a great celebration weekend for us..( I have proof of all of the informtion I'm giving you if needed) Your site rocks and I am adding it to my facebook profile to advertise for you. We would be VERY VERY grateful if we were to win these tickets. :-)

I am a college student and therefore have no money to spend on things that I love, like music. I would love love love to surprise my boyfriend with tickets to a fabulous festival. Hope to see you there!

Hi everybody. My brother is a music lover as am I. If we'd be lucky enough to win VIP passes, I think that would be a wonderful thing. But only YOU have the power to grant this wish come true. We're two genuinely good people that really would appreciate this. Thanks for your consideration, and I hope to see you there..

As is typical of anyone who lives in flyover country, I live my life vicariously through the music that pumps through my iPod. Throughout my life I have turned to ACL to see my favorites and those I've never heard before, perform, what seemed to be, a show just for me. To have the opportunity to visit ACL and see those same artists perform for my wife and I and a whole festival full of people who, no doubt, feel the same way would be on opportunity of a lifetime.

I love Manu Chao; I love Manu Negra; I have never heard any project that involves Manu Chao that isn't incredible. I was not able to go to San Fracisco to see him so this is the perfect excuse to go to Austin - the music mecca of the USA. Where better to embrace someone of such muscically global origins? Manu Chao's entire band always consists of the best the world has to offer. I love the guitar, the bass, the percussion, the horns that he chooses to back his soulful vocals and rhythms. I love how he absorbs and incorporates the music of the people where ever he travels. I really do love this guy. He is what Mozart aspired to be.

I would love to win these tickets. Not no be a Debbie Downer or anything but last year I bought my fiancee tickets to ACL for his birthday and the day before my Grandmother died and we were unable to go. I couldn't even sell the tickets. He was so selfless and automatically with no thought at all said lets go and be with your family. He gave up his tickets and a birthday. This year money is a little tight. I wasn't able to purchase the three day passes when they were avaliable and now the best I can hope for is a single day. I would LOVE to give this to him for his birthday this year. It would make up for last year and he would be SO HAPPY!!!

I recently moved to Portland from Austin and would love to see my friends!

My younger sister, Marybeth, was married on May 27th, 2008. At her wedding I become reacquainted with one of her closest friends, Becky. Becky lives in Austin. Becky and I had known each other for over thirty years, but it wasn’t until then that we realized how much we had in common, especially our love of music, and how much we enjoy each other’s company. She lives in Austin. I live in Jacksonville, FL. I have visited Austin and have other friends there; I love the town and its musical diversity. I hope to attend the ACL, regardless of winning the tickets or not, but I would like to win them for my sister, who got married in May. Sadly, her husband, Bill Dudash, died suddenly one month after their wedding. She and Becky attended the ACL a couple years ago, and I know that it would lift her spirits for my sister to be able to spend time with her best friend reliving some fun that they once had. She certainly deserves a respite.

I'm a stay-at-home mom, live in the SAME town as my in-laws and my crazy parents, live in the town my husband grew up in...ended up here after moving from Asheville, NC for a job on the coast of Mississippi three weeks before Katrina...also, my 37th b-day is coming up and it would be awesome to go--and I was born in TX and went there until college. PLEASE???

Because I'm distantly related to Robert Plant via my ancestors who came over on the Mayflower, so he needs to know that we share the same linkages, in a non-stalkerish way of course. Oh and I love live music. Like, a lot.

cuz i'm sexy as hell... and i'll be the only brother there besides the dudes cleaning up or sellin' food. Gimme gimme gimme... please?!

I have been unable to go out into the heat of ACL for the past ten years due to being ill with Lupus - After finally qualifying for a drug study (and completing it), I am finally able to go out into the heat of September in Austin! I have wanted to go to ACL every year, but have had to rely on first person accounts of how much fun was had! Please let me experience first hand the fun and the music of ACL now that my body is able to withstand the heat of an Austin summer.

I have had no time or money to get tickets this year, and I have been to every ACL since the first - its ACL and my lil' tradition to rock n roll every sweaty september. This contest is the only hope I have left of a musical sustenance in Austin - think of giving me the tickets as adopting a puppy and feeding starving children in africa at the same time....think of the karma!

Life in Austin is great...life in Austin backstage at the ACL festival is even better! Life in Austin Backstage at the ACL festival sippin' on tito's with next to my hot fiancee' is ABSOLUTELY THE BEST!!!!!!

I need a vacation so so badly. I save all my pennies to go to and enjoy live music that comes close to where I live. To go away, listen and enjoy all the things in a large music venue would be something I would never forget. I've had alot of things happen lately in my life and this would be a celebration for me, a good friend and a great 50th birthday present.

I know someone who'd really like to go to ACL this year... I deserve to win because I would give them the tickets.

There's simply no live music and entertainment festival/conference like SXSW and no televised concert series as strong as Austin City Limits. This an outstanding prize......why not me?

My husband, who is active duty military, and I always watch ACL on PBS and always would talk about how cool it would be to go to just one of the concerts. This would be a lifetime's worth of shows and it would be awesome for him to be treated like royalty after all his hard work.

never been to a country fastival and always wanted to go but coulden afford it

I should win because I very much enjoy the live music and would take full advantage of these passes. I have been to all of the ACL fests so far, every day every year. Plus, I am a winner. Let's do this.

um, i think i should win b/c i did lollapalooza vip style, and now i just can't go back. i love air-conditioned bathrooms, massages, catered food, formula 50 (and tito's, of course) and not being suffocated during "rage"-in shows. please help me in my crusade to never set foot in a porta-pottie again!

this is my first year and it falls over my best friend's birthday. I know--that was lame and predictable. Mostly, we are super cheap and would never pay to be v.i.p.s, but deep down we have what it takes to eat, drink and be merry at the festival and make great use of this amazing offer. pick us!

I am a HUGE fan of all of these wonderful artists and would love to be able to see them! My brother's band is in the Dell Sound and Jury contest and it would be THE MOST AMAZING thing to be able to be there to watch them perform the show of their lives if they get chosen to play at ACL!!!!!! Pick me!!!!

We would love the opportunity to see these terrific performers, and see my brother too! Please choose us! My husband

I think i should win because I Love BBQ and Beer

Pick me! As an Austin native I've been every year, but will not be going this year unless I get these passes! It would be a travesty to break the trend now...

I've lived in Austin for almost 3 years and haven't gotten to go to ACL yet. I am a huge fan of the bands playing this year and cannot afford to go. Pick me me me!!!

vrrrrrrrrrrrooom vrrrrrrrrooom this sites pretty damn coo
