Want to womp your face off? We have Bassnectar tickets!

I was so excited when I heard Bassnectar was planning to come to Raleigh. I saw Bassnectar at Bonnaroo this summer, and it was one of the best performances I saw all weekend. There were the "classic" Bassnectar songs, like "Basshead" and "Magical World," along with remixes of everything from punk music to pop. The light show was mind blowing - it just perpetuated the crowd's energy. Long story short, this is a show not to miss (unless you have an exam Friday morning, like me).

Bassnectar will play the Ritz Theatre @ Disco Rodeo on Thursday, September 22nd. Two Fresh and DJ Laura will be opening.

Tune in during Afterhours this week to win a pair of tickets to the show. Request lines are (919) 860-0881 and (919) 515-2400. Just be the correct caller when the DJ asks for it.
