Win a Los Campesinos! Prize Pack

Posted by Jerrold Litwinenko / March 30, 2009

los campesinos arts and craftsHere come Los Campesinos! Yet another band on the wildly successful Toronto-based record label Arts & Crafts, Los Campesinos! are a seven member indie pop breakout band that hail from Wales.

They'll be performing on Wednesday night at the Opera House, and Arts & Crafts wants one lucky blogTO reader and a friend to go to the show (and a couple others to score some sweet prize pack swag).

But we're going to make you work (just a little) to win.

At some random point in time later today, we'll post a skill testing question (based on the above video) on the blogTO Twitter feed.

The first person to answer that question HERE, in the comments (not on Twitter) will win:
- A pair of tickets to the show
- three CDs ("We Are Beautiful, We Are Doomed", "Hold On Now, Youngster..." and "Sticking Fingers Into Sockets")
- a limited edition poster

The second and third people to correctly answer the question will each win:
- three CDs (We Are Beautiful, We Are Doomed, Hold On Now, Youngster... and Sticking Fingers Into Sockets)
- a limited edition poster

And of course, if you don't win those tickets, you can buy them in advance. Good luck!

Los Campesinos! w/ Sky Larkin
Wednesday, April 1st @ The Opera House.
All Ages - Doors 8PM, Show 9PM.
Tix: $15 @ Ticketmaster, Rotate This, and Soundscapes.

seriously its not like they are Madonna.
I never had to work this hard for $15 tickets

In answer to your twitter question:
They sound like the teenage version of Miley Cyrus (I didn't think it could get more teenagery)

They are misleading everyone with their name. It is not symbolic of their all-white band. Sounds Spanish but isn't and everyone will demand refunds.

They should change their name to "THE TIMBITS" to be more genuine and lower the bar.
