WIN TICKETS: Write a haiku, go see The XX at the Merriam!
Wanna go see London pretty-pop rock band The XX at the Merriam on Monday? Prove it! Write a haiku about the band. Best one gets a pair of tickets to the show. We'll pick a winner on Thursday. According to the band's publicist, this is the XX's last tour supporting their lovely self-titled debut album, and they won't be back for awhile. A big, majestic, seated theater sounds kinda perfect for a band like this. The XX plays Mon., Oct. 4, 8 p.m., $25-$33.50, with Warpaint and Zola Jesus, Merriam Theatre, 250 S. Broad St., keswicktheatre.com. WE HAVE A WINNER: Congrats, Mim!

Music ringing out dark and full of sex the city grows cold The heat of packed bodies through frenzied gyrations beat this season's chill
Tour the best neva eva! Hitting lovers up at the theater FOX Ears never miss their REMIX
Look at heads and tails for each line. It says THE XX! This is one of the technical HAIKU methods.
Delicate noise play I dont want to ever go My heart skips a beat
The XX will play Finally somewhere with seats Maybe I'll have one
I would rather it read: lower case xx watch big love on VCR adjust the tracking
first crystalised leaves falling into the hush sound it's The XX band
minimalism is sexy; solid grooves stick in your mind for weeks
crystalline shelters starry notes sprinkled among mercury islands
'i can't give it up' cold shoulder sticky with sweat xx: xxx
I'm tuned to your frequency. There is nothing like. The moment the beat hit me.
damn...I thought it was 7,5,7
When your beat hit me. It fine tuned my frequency. Been vibing ever since.
xx encodes sex chromosome pairs twist and writhe xy unravels
This ain't English class What is a haiku anyway Bring on the X X
Whispering noises My heartbeat remembers love Monday with X X
