Contest #1

Posted on by Posted in Contests .

me and four peeps will
see the satin peaches soon
it is in the stars

or maybe

like satin peaches?
in my hand is a ticket
to that thing you like

Announcing the inaugural “Let’s go for a drive…” contest.

I think all of us are used to going to San Francisco for shows and take it for granted that the bands we want to see will have a tour stop in the area.

Sometimes, however, that just doesn’t happen… this is the first attempt at getting a few of us to those shows we might want to see but are out of our usual range.

The concert:

The Band: The Satin Peaches
The Venue: Carbone’s
The City: Monterey, CA
The Date: Friday, November 19, 2010

The contest:
Write a haiku that relates to either the band or the show or the contest itself and e-mail it to grimacekscu at gmail.

The Prize:
I, grimace, will act as designated driver for up to 4 lucky winners and drive our asses to monterey to see the Satin Peaches. Admission to the club is included in this here prize package.

Contest Notes:
these are single tickets rather than pairs. If you have a buddy that wants to go they’ve got to do their own haiku and get picked too.

Winners will have to arrange their own transportation to an as yet unspecified location near the Santa Clara University campus which will act as a “home base” for the trip. We will depart from this location and return to it after the show.

This contest is only open to people over the age of 21 because the venue is apparently a bar. Grimace doesn’t drink anything alcomaholic so the drive home will be a safe one.
