The Raveonettes at Double Door 3/18 - Free Ticket Giveaway!
If all you look at is The Raveonettes bio, they might seem to skirt precariously close to lapsing into schtick. Two somewhat glammy Danes trafficking in close-harmony vocals, shimmery '50's and early '60's pop sounds and somewhat dark lyrical subject matter could be the stuff of disaster. They manage to pull it off convincingly, however, and since their first full length album Chain Gang of Love came out in 2003 they have continued to make music that is more mod homage than staid apery.
The Raveonettes play the Double Door Tuesday the 18th with guests Black Acid. Tickets $15.
For one lucky Transmission reader, however, we've got a pair of tickets to give away for the Ravonette's 3/18 show at the Double Door. If you're 21+, just be the first to email us at contests (at) gapersblock (dot) com with the subject line "Raveon" and you're in luck! UPDATE! We have a winner! Congrats to Eric!
