Ticket Giveaway: Hallogallo 2010 @ Lincoln Hall, 9/8
What a week for electronic music lovers in Chicago! The first annual Sónar Chicago starts on Thursday and the related festivities put on by the Empty Bottle and Wire magazine begin on Wednesday. With all this activity, it would be easy, but foolish, to miss a performance related to a German band that innovated psychedelic rock and electronic music equally. The music of legendary krautrockers, NEU!, will be played at Lincoln Hall on Wednesday, September 8, under the name Hallogallo 2010. With Sonic Youth's Steve Shelley filling the late Klaus Dinger's role on drums, founding member Michael Rother and Tall Firs' Aaron Mullan plan to present tracks by NEU!, Harmonia and Rother's solo outings.
Thanks to the good folks at Lincoln Hall, we have a pair of tickets to give to one of our lucky readers. Just email us at contests@gapersblock.com with the subject line NEU! and you and a friend might be rocking for free Wednesday night. [Update! We have our winner! Congrats to Adam!]
