Passion Pit at Logan Square Auditorium + radio marketing bullshit


You've been invited...









what:         Passion Pit perform live

where:       Logan Square Auditorium

when:        Wednesday, September 30 2009 8:00 p.m.

cost:         FREE*

* 1)  you can only get tickets by entering a raffle** through XRT (the radio station)
   2)  you  can only enter the raffle by "spending" XRT VIP points.
   3)  You can only get VIP points by:
         a)  entering keywords heard on air
         b)  referring friends to become members of XRT's VIP program
         c)  taking XRT surveys

**This is a pain in the ass.  Why can't I just pay $20 to see the show and not have to do all this bullshit work (ie. sign up for spam, subject a friend to the same, fill out forms on music preferences) Sure, XRT is great, and I'd like to help them out, but I might not even GET a ticket after all.  Is there a cold-hard-cash-purchase option or do they only want to pack the show with suckers?*** 

***I'm a sucker, I signed up and entered the raffle twice.  Wish me luck!
