I first heard Dominos when it was used in promo ads for Skins on BBC America. That promo played *a lot*. I guess it worked because that hook (“these girls fall like dominos, dominos, dominos”) got in head and never left :).
My grandpa died during an intense game of Dominos while wearing a Velvet sweat suit. I know it would make his spirit happy if I went to the show had Crystal Visions of ole Pawpaw!!
My girlfriend and I just started saying “I Love You” this week and I can’t think of a better show to take her to than The Big Pink, who has a song and album called “A Brief History of Love” which will be prominently featured on a mix I’m making her this week.
Also, I’ll RT you all day and week. From multiple Twitter accounts…(@ZackTeibloom @Festivalcrasher & @austinvinyl)
Love, Zack
Well kids I gotta go with Zack on this one. That’s the best contest entry I’ve ever heard!
The aliens are coming to get me this weekend. My grandmother left me this band in her will and I’d like to hear them live once before I go.
