**Update - we have a winner! Congrats to Melanie!!!
So today is exciting news day - I also get to announce a contest! Thanks to Filter, I have two tickets to give away to see The Format this Sunday at Exit/In!!! If you win, you also get a t-shirt and a copy of the band's excellent new album, Dog Problems, which was the featured album on last night's show. I caught The Format last time they were in town at the End and they put on a great show, so I'm definitely looking forward to seeing them this time around.
To enter, just send an email, including your full name, address and t-shirt size to [email protected] before Thursday morning at 7 a.m. I'll randomly draw a name before I leave for work and let you know that you won. Don't worry, your info will be promptly deleted if you aren't selected, and I won't use it for anything else.
If you don't win, I definitely still recommend heading out to the show. It's all ages, will begin at 7 p.m., and the opening acts are Rainer Maria, Anathallo and Street to Nowhere. So send that email, and in the meantime, check out two songs from Dog Problems:
"She Doesn't Get It"
"The Compromise"
ps - Don't take my word for it - Nathaniel at I Guess I'm Floating also loves Dog Problems. You can pick up the album here.
Melanie Kowalski?
I hope so!
