Win Gnarls Barkley/Peeping Tom Tix In Atlantic City

Sorry for the late notice on this, but 20 (!) extra tickets to Gnarls Barkley's show at Atlantic City's House Of Blues just plopped in our lap. We saw 'em twice last weekend, and we wore huge smiles for both sets.

Tue, 08/15/06 8:00 PM
Gnarls Barkley with Peeping Tom featuring Mike Patton
House of Blues - Atlantic City, NJ

Yes, the concert's tomorrow. Are you in the Jersey area? Wanna go and take three friends? Stereogum's giving away four tickets each to five lucky winners. Just leave a comment and tell us what costumes you'd like to see Cee-Lo, DangerMouse, and Co. in tomorrow. (Use your real e-mail address, so we can contact you to confirm, and put you +3 on will call) Winners will be selected randomly (as always, our trusty random number generator will decide which # comments win).

Contest closes at 11 pm EST tonight, so you have adequate time to make three friends, buy a new outfit, download that obscure Doors song Gnarls covers, etc...

Good luck! And don't miss Gnarls on Letterman tonight, with Samuel Motherfucking L. Jackson.

UPDATE: The five random winners have been e-mailed. If any don't respond by noon, we'll pick more! Stay tuned.

If they're playing in Philly (ok, near Philly) then they should be dressed as the Eagles. Absolutely.

Cee-Lo as Donovan, Danger as the Eagle mascot, it'll be great.

No T.O.s tho or it might get ugly.

Furious Styles and his estranged wife Reva. Assorted BITH characters (Lil Chris, Doughboy, etc) as needed.

Early '80s Devo or Twisted Sister would be a good look.

Is it true Lewis Taylor is playing bass for the Gnarls tour?

I just got their St. Elsewhere CD, it's pretty darn awesome if I do say so. I love all the costumes they already have, but maybe the could go in some sort of Cartoon getups, like Batman and Robin, Bugs and Daffy or Elmer Fudd, or a Smurf and a Snork. That would make my day.

They should play dressed as Of Montreal. Cee-Lo as Kevin Barnes for obvious reasons.

In fact, all bands should probably play dressed like Of Montreal.

they should dress like big lebowski characters. Cee-lo would be the dude, Dangermouse could be the wheelchair bound lebowski, the backup singers could be the nihilists/autobahn, the backup band can be donny, walter, jesus, and liam (the bowlers), and the string quartet can me maude with the bowling pin danceline.

I would probably prefer to see Cee-Lo dressed up as the Green Ranger from the original Power Rangers just because he got aaaallll the ladiez and I know Cee-Lo wants all the ladies and DangerMouse and co. as like Sailor Moon. You know, because it's a good idea.
