Contest: Win Tickets to Calvin Harris at CiRCA

Posted by Carlos Weisz / August 25, 2008

200800825_calvin_harris.jpgSummer is almost coming to an end, so what better way to kick-off Labour Day long weekend than with a little party time? CiRCA hosts Scotsman Calvin Harris this Friday, August 29th.

Calvin Harris' debut album I Created Disco was one of my favourite party albums of 2007. Filled with tongue-in-cheek anthems like Acceptable in the 80s and The Girls, I Created Disco kept the dance floors moving and the music blogosphere buzzing.

Now, a year later, after producing, remixing and collaborating with some of the biggest like Kylie Minogue and Dizzee Rascal, Calvin Harris finally makes it to Toronto to show us what he's made of.

We have a hefty "back to school" giveaway with some goodies that will make your life sweet.

CONTEST ENTRY:
The 1st person to answer the following question correctly at or after 3pm blogTO time will win:
- 2 Tickets to see Calvin Harris at CiRCA
- 1 Calvin Harris CD
- 1 MGMT CD
- 1 Black Kids CD
- 1 DIOYY CD
- 1 Ting Tings CD

Question:
Which Canadian Dance Rock band covered a Calvin Harris song?
