Welcome to the new redesign! We went over to Dr. 90210 and lopped off that fugly right-hand column, which now allows us more room for giant photos.

And room to do this

<------------------------------------------------------- we love you this much ------------------------------------------------------ >

To celebrate our new look, our BFFs at Goldenvoice hooked us up with, count-em, 10 pairs of tickets to this week's And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead + Blood Brothers concerts at the Henry Fonda

We have five pairs for Thursday's show and five pairs for Friday's show.

So here's the contest, we want to know one of two things. Either tell us the five best movies that came out in 2006 or the five best cds that came out in 2006. If you tell us the five best movies then you are entered to win tix for Thursday's show, if you tell us the five best cds you're entered to win tix for Friday's show.

Complicated enough? Good. Deadline for entry is Wednesday night at 11:59pm. The way to enter is to put your Top 5 in the comments of this here post.

... And Yes You May Enter To Win For Both Nights. Like Paris and Britney, we have a hard time saying no. But if you enter for both, you need to do so in two different comments.

You come to LAist because you want independent reporting and trustworthy local information. Our newsroom doesn’t answer to shareholders looking to turn a profit. Instead, we answer to you and our connected community. We are free to tell the full truth, to hold power to account without fear or favor, and to follow facts wherever they lead. Our only loyalty is to our audiences and our mission: to inform, engage, and strengthen our community.

Right now, LAist has lost $1.7M in annual funding due to Congress clawing back money already approved. The support we receive from readers like you will determine how fully our newsroom can continue informing, serving, and strengthening Southern California.
