The reason: Parties like the one Wednesday night aren't sanctioned by SXSW, which has increasingly gone to great lengths to discourage or shut them down. They're calling in complaints to fire marshals and taking party promoters to court.

Alison and Jamie have worked for years to make a name for themselves and have only recently had the success she thinks they deserve. She sees Kate as a spanner in the works and, until she came along, Alison always came first with Jamie."

MS: Do you want to have to throw away your underwear because it's stained with peas and ketchup? Do you want to wash spaghetti o's out of your hair for a week? No, you don’t. Be thankful this was tame.
