Want POPPED! tix?

POSTED: Wednesday, September 14, 2011, 2:00 PM

We here at CP have been talking a lot about next week's highly anticipated POPPED! lately — we're official media partners for the music and food fest, and lent a hand in curating the sure-to-be-dope Food Bazaar. (See Critical Mass for daily coverage of all the POPPED! acts.)

To prove that we're not all talk and no walk, we've got pairs of tix for both days — that's two for Friday and two for Saturday — that we want to give away. Entering to win is easy: Simply write ONE SENTENCE about why you deserve this sweet prize and leave it as a comment on this post before 2 p.m. tomorrow, Sept. 15. Make sure you register with an email address that you check frequently, as that's how we'll alert the winner.

Good luck and happy sentencing! We'll see you at the show. Somewhat relatedly, here is a picture of POPPED! artist Kreayshawn eating a popsicle:

UPDATE [16sept11]: I gotta say, guys — I'm a little disappointed in the sentence selection for this contest! You have to know that "I love food and music" is not going to win you these tix, right? You gotta bring it a little, say something creative, outlandish, funny, scandalous, something that stands out! That's why Meal Ticket commenter gme928 wins with this gem: "These shows make me feel like a disco angel in a rainbow heaven." You'll be flapping your rhinestone-studded wings all over both days of POPPED!, sir/madam. Congratulations!

    Honestly, i don't think i (or anyone) can top "i like turtles" I tried, but could not. However, I am okay with second place.

    This would be my first concert/festival ever and it would convince my parents into letting me ride the Do Good Bus with Foster The People to promote good.

    This is my last year of freedom in Philadelphia before medical school eats up my life.

    Because life without music and food would be very dull indeed.

    You should give me the tickets because it'd be a fantastic birthday gift (and surprise) for my madre!
