We're presenting the show which is wonderful because I love this band so much I cannot stand it.
Behold one of my favorite songs of the last 2 years:
and then a new one "Guilt" from the JUST RELEASED THIS WEEK "COUPLES"
You can buy (13$ each) tickets here but we have a pair (plus a poster, a copy of the cd, a hug and some other stuff) to give away and all you have to do, as always IS COMMENT.
so do it.

God loves a cheerful giver.
i'm super excited about seeing them. nineteen is also one of my all time favorites.
Great -- a free opportunity to stalk Kate Jackson!
I'm in.
i'm happy to see them finally touring america. they would play a date here and a date there, but never anything close.
its become very apparent to me that no one that has anything to do with this website has any real taste in music, only style, and that is sad
slim: you're quite correct, we couldn't care less about music, we only pretend that we do for cred.
obviously.
i always knew that chick from Save Ferris had more in her.
wait a minute...
So excited they're touring. New song "Nostalgia" is just stellar. And Round the Hairpin give me shivers (in a good way).
*crosses fingers, hopes for best*
yay! I live nearby and will walk to this.
I can't wait to see them in Montreal!!!! Yeah
Professor toothbrush pants says sell turkey futures at +5/8
This band holds a very special place in my heart. They were playing in the background during a landmark first (nudge-nudge, wink-wink) with my boyfriend. It would be oh-so romantic if I won him tickets to see them live.
I love(d) the Long Blondes so much that I went up to Philadelphia in July 2006 to see their first non-New York U.S. date. Kate had to go out to their van to get us 12" singles of "Giddy Stratospheres" and "Separated By Motorways," since that was all the merch they had with them -- they weren't expecting to sell any.
I also had to go to Philly last year to see a set by Erol Alkan, the most amazing club DJ around, who produced "Couples." Twas bliss.
If I get the tickets, hug, poster, cd and other stuff it would be a good birthday gift for my friend. Though I would probably keep the hug because I don't know how to re-gift that.
yeah, fritz, but i love(d) them more...
... and then you woke up.
word.
