Win Tix to The Black Crowes, G. Love & Special Sauce, Howlin' Rain at the Greek Theatre

This Wednesday, September 17, The Black Crowes will grace Los Angeles' Greek Theatre along with G. Love & Special Sauce and Howlin' Rain (you can buy tickets here). The “Euphoria or Bust Tour” feature songs from the Crowes' first all new studio material in seven years, Warpaint.

The Black Crowes were heavily influenced by classic rock. With that said, to enter the contest, you must write a comment on this post's comment area below stating what you think is part of "classic" Los Angeles. In other words, what you think is a quintessential experience one must do while visiting or living in this city (giving surfing a try, eating at Pink's Hot Dogs, seeing a movie at Grauman's Chinese Theatre, etc. Maybe there are even more contemporary ideas like riding the Metro Red Line on a public art tour or a helicopter ride)? A qualifying comment will be chosen at random for the pair of tickets. More details are below:

Here's how the contest works:

  • Enter the contest by making a comment on this post (below). Comments must fit the criteria, stated below.
  • The criteria of the comment must state one thing that you believe is part of classic L.A., whether it be old or new school.
  • You may only enter once.
  • The contest closes at 11:59:59 p.m. on Monday, September 15, 2008.
  • One winner will be selected at random to receive a pair of tickets and will be notified via the e-mail connected to their LAist.com login. They must confirm the receipt of the e-mail by 12:00 p.m., Tuesday, September 16, 2008 or the tickets will be released to another winner.
  • Tickets will be held at the will-call pick up at the event
