ALL THE INFO on how the TICKET GIVEAWAY works:
.
====================================
.
Wed, Jun 24; a “SHOW-OF-THE-WEEK” pick:
7:30 pm EMMYLOU HARRIS, PATTY GRIFFIN, SHAWN COLVIN, & BUDDY MILLER are “THREE GIRLS AND THEIR BUDDY,” at the Greek Theatre, 2700 N Vermont Av, in Griffith Park, L.A.; Greek Theatre hotline, 323-665-1927; http://greektheatrela.com.
+
The performance of “Three Girls and Their Buddy” is a powerful evening of melodies and harmonies by megastars of roots-Americana, all four of them multiple-award-winning and accomplished singer-songwriters. The group is certain to present originals from their latest albums: Emmylou Harris’ “All I Intended to Be,” Patty Griffin’s “Children Running Through,” Shawn Colvin’s “These Four Walls,” and Buddy Miller’s recent offering, with his wife Judy, “Written in Chalk.” The set list will be a delightful mix of their originals and their favorite folk, country, and rock covers. All will share the stage, taking turns singing lead while the others do back up on vocals, guitar and hand percussion.
+
EMMYLOU HARRIS, PATTY GRIFFIN, SHAWN COLVIN, & BUDDY MILLER have variously played in each other's bands, sang each other's songs, done guest appearances or produced each other's albums, or done all of the above. The scope and artistry of such broad collaborative interaction is evident in their undeniable chemistry on stage. This is one of our favorite “SHOW-OF-THE-WEEK” picks of the summer, and an exciting ensemble performance by four beloved, venerable and esteemed all-stars of Americana, as “Three Girls and Their Buddy” perform at the Greek Theatre on June 24.
Tix, $55 / $45 / $35 / $25.

HERE’S HOW IT WORKS / RULES for the ticket giveaway:
+
1) “Tied to the Tracks” and the “Acoustic Americana Music Guide,” in association with Nederlander Concerts, is offering a FREE PAIR OF TICKETS each day for a week, Sat, June 13 through Friday, June 19, to see “Three Girls and Their Buddy” at the Greek Theatre on June 24.
+
2) On each of those seven days, just after 12 Noon, a daily question will be posted at both http://acousticamericana.blogspot.com and http://community.nodepression.com/profile/TiedtotheTracks
(The same question will be posted, as close as possible to the same time each day, on both websites.)
+
3) Each day, a different question will ask something about the music careers of one of the four artists performing in “Three Girls and Their Buddy” at the Greek Theatre on June 24.
+
4) The questions may be easy or difficult. Some may require digging, but the answer to each can be found by doing research on the web. Of course, big fans of the artist whose career is the subject of any given day’s question may already know the answer, and have a key advantage based on knowledge they already possess. Each question will be written by Larry Wines, and he shall be the sole judge of each question’s correct answer and of the winner of each of the seven pairs of tickets. NO ONE will be given hints, clues, answers or other information prior to the public release of each day’s question.
+
5) The winner of the pair of tickets each day will be determined by the first correct answer to the day’s question, as received at tiedtothetracks@hotmail.com
(Exception: after winning a pair of tickets in this giveaway, a winner is ineligible to win a second pair in this giveaway.)
+
6) Each winner, upon notification he or she has won, must provide their first and last name and complete address as it appears on the government-issued photo i.d. that they will use to claim their tickets.
+
7) Winners agree to allow their name and the name of the town where they live (not their complete address) to be used publicly in connection with any and all publicity and promotion deriving from the ticket giveaway, and each winner agrees to send a post-performance comment about the show, by email, for use by “Tied to the Tracks,” the “Acoustic Americana Music Guide,” Nederlander Concerts, and/or the Greek Theatre.
+
8) Upon receiving confirmation of the required i.d. information and the winner’s statement of acceptance of each of these terms, and intention to attend the concert, that pair of tickets (of the seven pairs) will be placed for pickup at Will-Call at the Greek Theatre, for pick-up on the evening of the performance, June 24, 2009; receiving the pair of tickets requires showing a government-issued photo i.d. with information matching that sent by the winner (see Rule #6).
+
9) Should a winner be unable or be deemed unable, for any reason, to accept the pair of tickets, the first correct answer received at tiedtothetracks@hotmail.com after their correct answer was received will win that pair of tickets.
+
+
GOOD LUCK, and start learning about the music careers of each of these four stellar artists!
