ELBOW’s new album “Seldom seen kid” is being released in the US today, and the men from Manchester are coming to this side of the Atlantic to celebrate.
Their Sunday show at the Sixth and I Synagogue is their only East coast stop aside from New York and 20 bucks is a pretty reasonable price to pay for a band that, at this point has a decade of solid, critically acclaimed material under their belt.
However, in our ongoing effort to help you save money so you can drink more or buy more belts at H&M or whatever it is that kids these days spend money on, we have not 1, not 2, but 3 pairs of tickets to give away.
Which actually makes your chances of winning significantly higher than usual.
to do:
leave a comment declaring why you’re worthy of this generous gift from us (and LiveNation) to you and we’ll let the winner know by Thursday at noon.
deals?
deals on wheels.

some seriously serious looking dudes.

Forget Elbow. 6th and I is a phenomenal location. I’d go see Britney Spears there if she toned down her crazy and played an acoustic set. ha

April 22, 2008 at 4:08 pmI was just fired from my job as a librarian. And now I’m thinking it’s time to put my tie-neck blouses and vintage glasses behind me and go to my very first D.C. show. Screw the man! Well, either that or pass the time by picking lint out of my bellybutton. Which do you think I should choose?
April 22, 2008 at 11:28 pmMan, those are some seriously ugly dudes.

I deserve tickets because I’m first (I think). Even if someone beat me to the punch, I still deserve the tickets because I want to go not just to see Elbow, but also to see the opening act, Jesca Hoop. She’s pretty awesome, too.
