Twofer ticket giveaway – Brendan Benson and Akron

February 23rd, 2010

From time to time, TwoGroove just happens to “acquire” some free tickets. We, of course, can’t tell you how this happens (it tends to involve them “falling off the back of a truck”), just that it does. When the aforementioned acquisition occurs, it is in our best interest to get those tickets out of our hands and into yours. It’s usually best if you don’t ask questions lest you expose the seedy underbelly of Austin’s ticket-trafficking racket. Just smile, enjoy the show, and go about your day.

Anyway, here is what’s goin’ down. We have a pair of tickets to each of the shows listed below. Both are tomorrow Feb 24th. Check out the shows (links below go to Do512), pick which one you want to go to and then scroll to the end of the post to find out how to claim the tickets. It’s that simple. Act fast though, free tickets tend to get snatched up quickly.

KUT Welcomes: Brendan Benson (of The Raconteurs) w/ Leatherbag @ The Independent

101X’s Daily Dose & Next Big Thing present: Akron/Family w/ Warpaint @ The Parish – UPDATE: We have a winner. Congrats to Zack Teibloom; he won the Akron/Family tickets.

How to snatch the tickets:
1) Follow TwoGroove on Twitter and Facebook.
2) Tweet @TwoGroove, send a DM, post on our Facebook wall, or send a Facebook message. Be sure to mention which show you want tickets to.
3) Wait. We will round up all the messages at the end of the day (Feb 23) and inform the winners. We’ll also announce the winners via Twitter and Facebook.

Roaries voting extended until tomorrow

February 22nd, 2010

Voting in The Roaries, Austin’s OTHER Music Awards, has been extended until 11:59pm Tuesday night. We have received almost 1000 ballots so far and more are coming in every day. Make sure you get your votes in today or tomorrow; the top three nominees in most categories are within 1-2% of each other. We would hate for a nominee to lose by one vote, so we decided to keep the voting going for a couple days more.

If you haven’t yet voted, then what are you waiting for? It’s quick and easy, just clicky the link!

Then be sure to stop by The Parish on Thursday night for the official Roaries Award Show. It’s right after work, from 5 – 9 pm, and we’ll have some free libations for you to enjoy courtesy of Treaty Oak Rum (and maybe some surprise drinks too!). Sharkweek and Prepmode will be keeping the tunes going, pausing only for us to hand out awards and premiere some sweet videos from the nominees. Chris over at Republic of Austin has been been busting his butt scheduling, shooting, and editing the videos.

Then stick around! Everyone who attends the Roaries Award Show gets FREE ENTRY into A Night of Daft Punk & The Clash with DJ Thibault.

SXSW: How do you roll?

February 17th, 2010

Time to fess up, how are you planning to experience SXSW this year? I’ll go first: I’m torn between a wristband and just hitting all the free parties. Last year, I rocked the wristband and found it to be well worth the money. This year, I’m leaning toward the free party route but haven’t quite decided.

Also, stay tuned. TwoGroove will be hooking up with NY record label RethinkPopMusic for a 12 hour party on Saturday, Mar 21st. Details are coming soon!
