Ticket Giveaway: Built to Spill

2008-02-28_bts.jpgOh, indie rock. Does such a genre even really mean anything anymore? What was once "independent" is now major label material; a few major label material acts are now "independent." The grass is blue, the sky is green, up is down, down is up; nothing makes sense in this day and age.

Leave it to Built to Spill to defy space and time by continuing to rock the same songs they've been playing since 1993 and still continously adding to their body of work. They were doing Modest Mouse before Modest Mouse did pre-Good News for People Who Love Bad News Modest Mouse.

Give thanks to some of the indie originators when Built to Spill plays Warehouse Live on Monday, March 3. In fact, for a chance to nab a pair of free tickets, send us your name and phone number to contest (at) houstonist (dot) com. The contest ends at noon tomorrow.

Warehouse Live, 813 St Emanuel St (map)
