Sorry but thats not quite right. Sonicbids are offering you a month free membership and a submission for Go North for $10. After your free month you would have to pay $66 for a years membership, although they used to let you pay for monthly membership, not sure if that still applies though? If you wish to submit for any other events they have, it can cost you anything from $5 to $30 for each submission, depending on the event. SXSW was $25 to apply, with the chances of be picked very slim I would guess, although why would you want to go across there without some sort of major hype behind you? IMHO of course Also they have The Great Escape festival on at the moment and it is $30 to apply. Last year for Gonorth you could indeed just apply through their Website for free or through Sonicbids or both!!
