We’re not even sure how it happened but it turns out that Matador Records is willing to give some lucky We Own This Town reader a pair of tickets to the upcoming New Pornographers / Okkervil River show (April 18th, 2008).

So, if you are interested in winning some tickets to the show – just drop a comment on this news post and we’ll select someone to win the pair before the show.

Winner will be chosen and notified in early April.

In other semi-related news, if you’re interested in doing some street team style marketing for Matador / Beggars Group (New Pornographers, Tapes N Tapes, The National, Cat Power, etc. etc. etc.) please contact clairetaylor [at] beggars.com – she’s looking for some good Nashville area folks to help her out (free schwag will undoubtedly be part of your payment plan).

Forget Cassettes have a new project, with a new demo, that has a new video.
