The Brooklyn-based indie poppers in Bishop Allen stop through Lola’s Sixth in Fort Worth tomorrow night as part of a tour in support of its March-released Grrr…, the band’s third full-length since its Charm School debut in 2003–and, surely, its more ubiquitous. Take, for instance, “The Ancient Commonsense of Things” (as seen in the above clip), the album’s highly verbose lead single, a song bound to sneak its way into the crooks of your head, thanks to its “ooooh-waaa-OOOHHH!” choral vocals, knowingly snide lyrics, and, well, overall cutesy pop sensibilities. I mean, it’s kinda tough not to smile at a song that rhymes “what it meant to me” with “timpani,” right?
And the folks at Spune Productions have been kind enough to pass along a pair of tickets to tomorrow night’s show. Want in? Be the first person to email me with “Grrr…” in the subject line and the tickets are yours. Good luck!
Update: Contest is over. Congrats to our winner.
