Fresh.i.Am want’s you… //Major Lazer/Rusko/Sleigh Bells/Hollyweerd ticket giveaway (final week)

leave a comment

The end is nigh! Major Lazer and his troops are closing in on Atlanta. In less than a week, he and his commandos will launch their assault on The Masquerade and the (un)suspecting masses. Booties will be popped. Asses will be clapped. Hands will be raised in the air like there is no care. He will be flanked by Rusko and Sleigh Bells and has since recruited hometown heros Hollyweerd so it just got extra serious.

Atlanta needs you, my friends, to be on the front lines as the Major and his goons attempt to set the city ablaze. Will history repeat itself? Possibly, but with far more entertaining results.

Be one of the lucky few to witness what goes down first hand. Follow us on twitter (if you aren’t already) and @ us your declaration of solidarity! On Friday we will choose our final operative to join us. The rest of you will have to, you know, buy a ticket.

This weeks rules are simple +
+ follow us at twitter.com/freshiamatl
+ “@” us how much you want Major Lazer tickets
+ pray
+ rinse and repeat

Remember, this is an ALL AGES EVENT so any one can enter.

Viva la revolution!

Congratulations to Katzi Roman for winning last weeks tickets
