Thievery Corporation Giveaway!
This seems like a great summertime show: The handsome fellas of Thievery Corporation will be performing Friday, June 25, at the Congress Theater. The DJ/producer duo hail from Washington, DC, though you wouldn't know it from listening to their music. Rather, their laid-back dance tracks reflect the world at large, borrowing heavily from South American, Jamaican, African, and Indian beats. Put the glow sticks away, folks, it's not that kind of chest-thumping, basstastic party (though I suppose you could hula hoop to it). Warming up the audience is Telepath, an up-tempo breakbeat crew from Philly.
Want to hit up the show for free? We've got two pairs of tickets to give away! Just be the first two people to email us at contests@gapersblock.com with the subject line "Beats!" and you and a friend will get to dance dance dance all night for $0. [Update! We have our winners! Congrats to Christopher and Ross!]
Thievery Corporation plays the Congress Theater on June 25th. Doors open at 7:30 p.m., and yes, Virginia, it's an all-ages event. Tickets run $35 ($45 special 2-for-1 online special) to $100 for VIP. The Congress is located at 2135 N. Milwaukee Ave. 773-227-7595.
