Grow a Pair: Win Free Tickets to See Tom Jones on 5/18

May 14th, 2013

1

Tom Jones is a goddamned phenomenon. The Welsh crooner recently put out his 40th studio album, Spirit in the Room, and he still continues to perform live regularly, most notably in Vegas. He doesn’t, however, tend to play small rooms, like he is on Saturday at The Bowery Ballroom. Tickets for that show went quickly, but The House List is giving away two of them. So if you’d like to go, try to Grow a Pair. It’s easy. Just fill out the form below, making sure to include your full name, e-mail address, which show you’re trying to win tickets to (Tom Jones, 5/18) and a brief message explaining which Tom Jones tune would most prompt you to doff your drawers and toss ’em onstage. Eddie Bruiser, who’s fond of underwear that breaks away like basketball warm-ups, will notify the winner by Friday. Good luck.
