The following three NYC New Years Eve shows are not sold out, and not that expensive...

1) MERCURY LOUNGE with/ Surefire, The Big Sleep, Levy & Ambulance LTD. (tix)

2) KNITTING FACTORY (2 floors) with/ Radio 4, Tussle, Vic Thrill & the Saturn Missile, Tim Fite, roxy pain w/ katie from young people, DJ Tony Fletcher, & DJ McCutcheon (tix)

3) ASTERISK with/ Kudu, Certainly Sir, Lanhorne Slim, Roy Dank & Brennan Green (info)

...and cheaper than not expensive is FREE, and I'm giving away exactly one pair of tickets to each of these three shows (that's 3 shows, 6 tickets, 3 winners, 2 tickets each). For those that can't make one of the shows, I also have a Broken Flowers DVD to give away:

Broken Flowers

Did I mention the Mercury Lounge tickets are sponsored by The Big Sleep?

To win the DVD or any of the tickets, vote in the PLUG Awards (honor system), and then e-mail me at bvcontests@hotmail.com and tell me:
a) Which prize you want (ML, KF, Asterisk, or the DVD).
b) Your favorite album from 2005.
c) Your favorite musical moment/concert/anything of 2005.

I might use your answer for a post on this site. I won't share your email address. I'll pick one winner randomly for each prize. Contest ends Friday December 30, 2005 @ 6PM (talk about last minute New Years plans). Winners will be notified and placed on guestlist (for the shows). The DVD will be mailed.

You can also pick up tickets for the Radio 4 show at Somethin' Else Records in Park Slope. Yesterday there were a handfull left...
(and isn't Tussle also playing the R4 show? or just DJing? I'm confused now)
