Win Tickets to Tori Amos at the NOKIA Theatre
Happy Holidays LAist Readers! Here's a nice treat for you. We have three pairs of tickets to giveaway for Tori Amos at NOKIA Theatre L.A. LIVE on Dec 16 at 8:15 p.m.
If you haven't been Downtown in awhile, the new LA Live development across the street from the STAPLES Center is really starting to change the neighborhood. All very exciting and all within a short walk from the Red and Blue lines.
To enter the contest, leave a comment telling us what your favorite Tori song is. Bonus karma points go to those who choose that song with a Los Angeles freeway reference in it (just realize that qualifying entries are chosen at random).
The contest ends at 11:59:59 p.m. on Monday, December 10, 2007. Good luck!
