Once again we are giving away two tickets to see Great Northern. This time around the excellent—and sexy as all get out—Los Angeles pop act will be supporting Canada's The Dears (plus, opening the show is the very underrated Eulogies) on Tuesday, May 26th at the Doug Fir.

Touring in support of Remind Me Where the Light Is, the band has been featured on Grey's Anatomy (this is bad), performed with the likes of Silversun Pickups and Spoon (this is good), and has been known to put on one epic live show (this is true). See for yourself when you comment below and explain why you deserve to win these tickets. The best comment by tomorrow (Friday) at noon will win their way into the show. Good luck.

Weird...I didn't know this band existed until yesterday, when I was watching Twin Peaks and thought "Great Northern is a GREAT band name!" and myspace-googled it. Dun dun dun!

Because it might kinda make up for the fact that the Jicks show at the Doug Fir a couple of weeks back got sold out and subsequently made me all sad?

I'm certainly too hip to try and be clever just to win tickets. I don't even care. Seriously. I mean, if you wanted to give me the tickets I might go to the show, but I seriously don't even care.

Shit, I gotta go, I just ripped a hole in my jorts on my fixie.

I'm thinking about opening a waffle cart in SE Portland near Sellwood called WOFLMAO. I just thought that was interesting and you would give me the tickets. You may also find it interesting that if I do open said waffle cart that I would most likely give you free waffles from the cart no questions asked if you hand over these tickets. This is all speculation though.
