Win a pair of tix to see Bill Callahan



Hey! I have a pair of tickets to give away for Bill Callahan show at Cosmic Charlie's on Monday, December 7 (21+).

Since I'm short on time (as usual), I'm just gonna copy the informational schpiel I wrote about him for the contest at Smiley Pete (which you can and should enter as well):

Bill Callahan (known at times as Smog) began his career almost 20 years ago with experimental lo-fi recordings, mostly instrumental, that he made himself. Eventually he caught the attention of Drag City Records, who signed him in 1993, and his work since then has evolved into much more clean and polished ballads that showcase his distinct baritone voice as well as his deadpan delivery of lyrics that somehow resonate equally with darkness and beauty. This beloved fixture in the indie community will be giving an intimate performance, presented by Sprouse House Productions, at Cosmic Charlie's on Monday, December 8. Lights and Neal Morgan will open.

To enter, e-mail kyblueline@gmail.com and tell me which one-word alter-ego name you would sometimes use if you were a singer-songwriter. Winner will be chosen randomly (not based on the merit of his or her response) on Monday around 3 p.m. Make sure you leave your contact info.
