Win Tickets to See Our 5th Anniversary Show with Pickwick, American Girls and The Mallard

by

This Friday we’re celebrating five years of loving local music out loud the only way we know how, with a kick ass concert.

We really do want to celebrate, so we booked a bill to dance and sing along to: we’re bringing Pickwick out of the basement and American Girls, a ragtag group of local all-stars doing Tom Petty better than Tom Petty does to the party. And seeing that both bands are selling out Seattle stages, we figured we’d ask someone we think deserves to play in front of a couple hundred people, but isn’t yet, Daily Choice regular, The Mallard. Greer’s making the drive all the way from San Francisco to celebrate with us, so we hope you get there early enough to meet her.

Of course, it wouldn’t be a party and we wouldn’t be celebrating five years without you guys, so we’d like you to join us. And since we’d like to do this even better for you all for the next five years …

Leave a comment using your real name and email address letting us know what you want to see more of in the next five years on Sound on the Sound and you’ll be entered to win a pair of tickets to the party. We’ll pick a winner on Thursday morning.

And we won’t be the only ones celebrating. Pickwick will also be releasing a new 45, a split with pals Concours d’Elegance, where they cover each other’s tunes. The limited release will be available for sale the first time at the show. Speaking of for sale, that beautiful poster for the show will be screen-printed in all its nine-color glory and also be available for purchase Friday night only.

Last and certainly not least, a word of warning, tickets are selling quick and with it being pay day today, we wouldn’t be surprised if the show was sold out by the time we notify our lucky winner. If you don’t want to leave your attendance up to chance, you can purchase your tickets now. Here’s the fine print for Friday’s show:

Who: Pickwick, American Girls, The Mallard When: Friday August 5th at 9pm Where: Columbia City Theater How Much: $10 advance or $12 Day of Show

Apologies to our not-yet-21 readers, it’s a drinking show.

    In the bext 5 years I’d like to see more Hip/Hop reviews and eventually a sound on the sound festival of some kind. Keep up the good work!

    I would love to see less politics and more unbiased support of the local budding music talent! Perhaps a sound on sound musician clinics festival would be awesome! Good works! : )

    I would love to see a Sound on the Sound summer festival!

    I would like to see more kittehs featured on Sound on the Sound. Pictures of kittehs make the internet go ’round.

    But I’m diggin’ Evan’s idea of a SOTS music festival. Can we ever have enough festivals? Maybe. But yours would be the best, I just know it. Especially if the festival has kittehs.

    Also, Noah Gundersen. Kevin Long. Let’s see more of them in the next five years.
