I’m rarely afforded the opportunity to see live music these days. It simply ain’t happening—despite the number of tickets we give away to shows here at TVD, which—all blessing and a curse-like—keeps me most evenings glued to the Mac. Right, right – there are exceptions but normally the concerns are for your evening plans.
But I did have the opportunity to catch Pittsburgh, PA’s Mariage Blanc last summer on a four-way bill we promoted that week and with having heard just one track, the joyous ‘Whatever You Say I Am,’ (very Pernice Brothers) I was taken with the band immediately, chatted them up, told ’em they needed to get back on the blog—and that moment’s here in the form of a pair of tickets to Friday’s show at Velvet Lounge with Foreign Press and Janel and Anthony.
You’ve got 48 hours to win this pair by telling us in the comments to this post, what band you saw live for the very first time that simply blew you away. Should be easy, right?
We’ll choose our winner at noon on Friday, 10/1 and remember to leave us a contact email address with your insightful entry.
Remember, we’ve teamed up with ReadysetDC for all of our ticket giveaways so you can enter to win either here at TVD or at ReadysetDC.
