Coventry Ticket Bonanza!

Tue, 12 May 2009 16:11:17 -0400

We’ve been getting all your messages telling us how sad you are that we’re not stopping in Birmingham on this tour we’re on right now and we feel really bad. You’ve always been great to us and we did try to play a show there on this run, but just couldn’t make it work!

We’ll really do our best to set up a show there for next time, but in the meantime here is how we’re going to try and make it up to you.

We spoke to the promoter for tomorrow’s (Wednesday, the 13th) show in Coventry, which is only about 30 minutes away, and we’ve managed to get our hands on a big chunk of additional tickets that we’re running a contest with.

All the messages from you guys in Birmingham is what inspired us here, but since we don’t want to leave anyone out again, the contest is open to anyone and everyone.

There are a bunch of tickets set aside for this (Birmingham is a whole town after all, plus we know not only people from Birmingham are going to enter) so your odds of winning are good if you act fast. Plus, everyone who enters gets to download a free song!

Click here http://www.ilovemetric.com/coventry for details…

Hope to see you there!

Metric loves you,

Xoxoxo

PS: THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A VERY LAST MINUTE CONTEST, SO PLEASE HELP US SPREAD THE WORD. IF YOU KNOW ANYONE IN COVENTRY OR BIRMINGHAM WHO MIGHT LIKE TO COME, LET THEM KNOW…
