I ask, I receive! Them Crooked Vultures playing LA, thank you Universe!

Now that’s what I’m fuckin’ talking about! Earlier today I said I couldn’t wait til Them Crooked Vultures announced a show in Los Angeles and I really hoped that somehow, someone could slide me into it cuz I cant afford to buy tickets. I’m barely making rent every month, but at least I am and I’m thankful for that. I’m not really allowed to buy “luxury items” right now cuz I asked my girlfriend to help me save money cuz I suck really bad at keeping money in my bank account. And “luxury items” mean slurpies, weed, eating out, magazines, movie tickets and tickets to see rock n’ roll bands. So considering the new rules of my life plus the low ammount of money in my bank account, I can not and will not be able to buy tickets to see Them Crooked Vultures play The Wiltern in Los Angeles. I really wish I could, but I can’t. The promise is, I need to go to that show. Ya dig?

Aside from posting these new west coast dates from Dave, Josh and JPJ (I love calling him JPJ by the way… in fact from now on I want everone to called TMK), the main point of this post was to try and score myself some free tickets to the LA show. One of the perks of Buddyhead, free tickets to see rock bands! Yeah sure I’d rather have money given to me for everything I write on here, but I live in the real world lady and I’ll take the free rock tickets when I can!

So here’s the deal champ… if you’ve got two tickets you don’t mind parting with for a wink or a high-five, shoot me an email travis@buddyhead.com cuz I really wanna take my lady friend to this show. I know, I’m like the homeless dude standing on the corner asking for a one million dollar bill! Big deal, you’d understand if you knew what when down in my bedroom! My girlfriend has only heard one song by Them Crooked Vultures on repeat and we tore each others clothes off like Wolverine from that X-Men movie and kept the neighbors up all night… it was fucking awesome. I can only imagine what will happen after a full live set! So if you wanna help out a good cause, kick me down two tickets. Sorry about the bragging, but I thought about it and came to the conculsion that “Fuck it, this is my site and once in a while I have to brag on here!” Cool?

    [...] Trav at Buddyhead is pretty amped about Them Crooked Vultures playing in L.A. However, I’m not amped about Them Crooked Vultures not playing [...]

    Everyone who reads Buddyhead should get free tickets. JPJ doesn’t need the money.

    Somebody give Travis tickets.

    I got to go to the “warm up” show they did at Stubbs in Austin on the Thursday before the Austin City Limits festival. By the end of the show it was pretty evident there was going to be some serious baby making going on later that night. I really thought the show was going to sound alot more ZZ-Top, but they came out with their own sound which was great.

    There were a bunch of high power cameras around and I thought I read somewhere they were filiming the show for an episode of Austin City Limits. JPJ whips out a couple of cool guitars and Dave goes nuts for a while on a couple of songs.

    Travis, srsly? I don’t think I’ve ever seen/heard of you paying for tickets ever, yet you will end up at that show just as every other show. You are the man.

    I saw them playing in Paris, I didn’t know what to expect but it was really cool, hope you’ll get your free tickets!
