TVD Ticket Giveaway: Nurses at Hi-Dive, 1/15

What better way to fight off that fuck-work-want-play cold you may or may not exaggerate to your boss this coming Friday or Monday than a glass of cold beer and the warm drones of some good music? Yeah, we couldn’t think of one either and we are happy to enable a self-declared 3-day weekend by giving away a pair of tickets to see Nurses this Sunday, 1/15, at the Hi-Dive.

Calling out sick to see Nurses—it does seem meant to be. Let the acid flashback inducing concoction of psychedelic pop melt away your senses and stresses this Sunday night and hopefully you can forget about Monday all together. It helps that Nurses’ new album Dracula is an indulgent snack of pure auditory seduction. It is a perfect accomplice for an opportunistic extension to your holiday vacation. They never are long enough, and neither is this album.

Dracula triggers an obsessive twitch with its on-trend, vamp-happy title and its relatively more important stock of addictive hooks and infectious lyrics. It is unconventional, haunting, and sexy—much like the infamous figure it shares its name with. It may be impossible to listen to this Nurses masterpiece and stay in a post-holiday funk. Just try it and see.

Aiding in your path to a healthy recovery from mid-winter boredom, The Don’ts and Be Carefuls will be laying down locomotive beats guaranteed to work up a sweat and a dancing fever—just in case your boss calls.

Start practicing that award winning cough you perfected in middle-school—you’re going to need to pull out all the tricks monday Morning. To win your pair of tickets tell us in the comment box below your go-to theme song for a day of playing hooky. I’ll be happy to state the obvious and pick The Beatles’ Twist and Shout from the holy grail of sick-schemes, Ferris Buellers’ Day Off.

Deadline to enter is Thursday, 1/12, at Noon and the winner will be picked by 5pm, so check your email!
