The Wailers, about whom you are no doubt familiar even if your Bob Marley knowledge is minimal, will be stopping by the Granada Theater this evening to do their whole reggae thing.

But, it should be noted, there are actually two different Wailers bands floating about the country at any given time, both claiming to be the real deal. Long story short: Only one actually boasts an honest-to-goodness Wailer who played with Marley -- that'd be bassist Aston "Family Man" Barrett -- and, far as we can tell, it's his group, formally called The Wailers Band, that's playing the Granada tonight.

Although, really, does it even matter? Yes and no. Yes, obviously, for the purists. But, certainly, it's a big fat no for the dreadlocked set simply looking for a good soundtrack while they smoke their big fat joints.

Regardless, we've got some good news for you this morning, no matter which camp you claim as your own: The folks over at the Granada have been kind enough to pass along a couple pairs of tickets for us to in turn hand out to some lucky DC9 winners. And, for good measure, they're letting us give away some of those sweet Poster of the Week-winning screen prints promoting the show, too.

Find out how you can win after the jump.

Want a pair of passes and a free poster? OK. Just be among the first people to email me, starting right now, with the words "Noah and the Wail" in the subject line, and you're in. Good luck!

Update: Contest is over. Congrats to our winners!
