Win Tix to Minus the Bear, Annuals & Helms Lee on 11/16!

Am I the only one who’s noticed a trend around indie band names? In particular I’m remembering an invasion of bands named after wolves. And then there were bands with “kids” in the name. And then the Black Keys, the Black Lips, Black Eyes, Black Sheep, Black Angels…then came bears. Grizzly Bear, Panda Bear, Bear In Heaven…and Minus the Bear. Of course, they come from Seattle with a pedigree: they’ve got current and former members of Botch, Kill Sadie, and Sharks Keep Moving. If you want to see their show this Sunday at the Fonda, find the funniest “bear”-related video that you can (like this one) & post a link to it in the comments below. Tix to the show are here, if you’d rather buy ’em.
