Monument Music Festival is quickly becoming synonymous with awesome shows to benefit awesome causes, and tonight’s DC9 show featuring Frenchkiss/IAMSOUND/Spunk’s Suckers and DFA’s Rewards to benefit Common Good City Farm is certainly no exception.
If you’ve already purchased tickets for tonight’s show, you’ve scored the biggest pre-halloween treat imaginable, but if you’re still on the fence for tonight, not only does your ticket benefit Common Good City Farm, whose mission is to to grow food, educate, and help low-income DC community members meet their food needs, but you’ll get to see two of Brooklyn’s finest bands, and there’s no pressure to wear a costume (although I always encourage it).
If you need any further convincing, let’s let Suckers convince you:
And Rewards would like to make the following public service announcement:
“Equal Dreams” features Solange Knowles, which explains why you can catch a glimpse of Rewards at the 1:15-ish mark in big sister Beyoncé’s brand spanking new vid, “Party (ft. J. Cole).”
Anyway, Monument, Suckers, and Rewards have all collaborated on the ultimate prize pack giveaway for the sweetest comment made on this post. Any one of you shall be graced with an always sexy Monument Music Poster (seen at the top), a Suckers Wild Smile LP (above), and a Rewards “Equal Dreams” 12 inch single.
The show’s line up makes me think of suckers as rewards at a carnival, you know, when you pick one, and if you get a colored dot on the bottom, you win a reward and a tasty treat.
Just tell us a song that’s a reward at the end of a long day, when you’ve been working like a sucker.
Duh, we’re going with that new Beyoncé jam.
We’ll pick the winner next Thursday (11/3), and as always, the winner must have a valid mailing address in the continental US or Canada.
