Rams Head The Blog

An acclaimed lyricist and impassioned musician in the tradition of Guy Clark and Townes Van Zandt, Robert Earl Keen is rolling back into town with alt-country darlings The Deep Dark Woods this Tuesday night on his Ready For Confetti Tour. And to make it that much more exciting, he’s sent us some pretty awesome swag to get you into the confetti spirit!

So here’s the deal: we’ve got two prize packages you can win…

Prize Pack #1: Ready For Confetti (blue) and The Rose Hotel t shirts, Robert Earl Keen sunglasses, keychain and REK Burlab flip-flop bag.

Prize Pack #2: Ready For Confetti (white) Robert Earl Keen t shirts, Ready For Confetti cap, keychain and REK Burlab flip-flop bag.

Here’s how you enter to win it: leave a comment with the situation least likely to be ready for confetti (i.e. A Forest Preservation Rally) and our panel of judges will pick some Grand Prize winners to get ready for Robert Earl Keen’s Ready For Confetti Show!

Enter as many times as you want, and be creative. We’ll announce the winner next Tuesday before the show right here on the blog.

And remember, if you haven’t picked up tickets yet, make sure you do so right away because there are only a few left!

Brandon and Val... your discerning panel of judges. Impress us!

Enjoy this around the fireplace with friends and family or accompanying your favorite holiday meals.
