Jonathan Richman will be hitting the stage at 9:30 Club this Saturday, and TVD is giving you a chance to win a pair of tickets to see the man whose influence has been stamped on modern punk music. His latest album, Oh Moon, was just released last fall, but he has been inspiring musicians such as The Sex Pistols and Iggy Pop for over twenty-five years.
Also today, as part of our Eleven Weeks of Vinyl Giveaways counting down to April 16, 2011—Record Store Day, we’re giving away Tom Waits’ 1976 LP Small Change. Oddly enough, both Jonathan Richman (with The Modern Lovers) and Tom Waits have songs entitled “Ice Cream Man.”
“Jojo” is a bit of a recluse, shying away from the internet and notoriously difficult to obtain an interview with. To win the tickets, simply comment below, how you would hide from the press if you were famous.
The winner will be chosen Thursday (2/24) at noon.
