On Monday (6/13), Portland indie folk rockers The Decemberists hit up Merriweather Post Pavilion with… wait for it… Best Coast! (Who else couldn’t get that noise-pop “Boyfriend” song out of their head last summer?) We have a chance for you to win a pair of lawn tickets.
The Decemberists just released their sixth studio album The King Is Dead earlier this year. I must say though, my favorite Decemberists’ song is “Sleepless” from 2009’s Dark Was the Night compilation. (Supposedly, a sequel to the compilation is coming, too.)
Were you sleepless, tearing at the air?
Was the water everywhere?
Were you fretful to wade into the room?
I’d been wanting to hear from you
Oh, no
I’ve had way too many sleepless nights lately.
To win the tickets, give us a song about sleep in the comments below.
I know, kind of a toughie, but these are tickets to see two great bands! Gotta make you work for it a little bit. I’m calling Arcade Fire’s “Rebellion (Lies)” because we all know that sleeping is giving in.
The winner will be chosen Friday (6/10) at noon.
