Creamtastic Caption Contest: Trans-Siberian Orchestra Ticket Giveaway! [Updated]
Posted by Adam Gold on Mon, Dec 14, 2009 at 6:42 AM
Last week, an impromptu caption contest broke out when I posted this picture of John Rich as Grand Marshal of the 2009 Nashville Christmas Parade--the funniest picture ever taken of anything ever. So, since you guys are salivating for one, here's a legit caption contest. Keeping in the spirit of Christmas we've got a pair of Trans-Siberian Orchestra tickets to give away and a doozy of an image to make fun of. While it's not John Rich selling what's left of his soul for pennies on the dollar, it should inspire some snark nonetheless.
As far as these tickets are concerned, they're for the TSO show at Sommet Center on Jan. 3. I know it's not quite as good as Sonic Youth or KISS tickets, but hey, they're free. Just think of us as your grandmother who still gives you slipper-socks for Christmas--it's the thought that counts. Also, I'm sure some of you readers are perhaps a little too hip to be hip to the Trans-Siberian Orchestra, so here's a primer: the TSO are a symphonic metal "orchestra" who put on an arena-sized Christmas concert--complete with massive pyro and epic lighting--that gives you some insight into what Christmas at Yngwie Malmsteen's house is probably like. So be funny and win some tickets so you can see it for yourself.
As always, be sure to include your email in the proper field. (We won't publish it, but we'll need it to notify our winners.) Contest ends at 2 p.m. on Wednesday. Go!
Update: Congrats to our winner, Liz. Enjoy the show!

Santa is searching for Nemo needs Little Mermaids help. Quick play some Trans-Siberian Orchestra!
Dear Little Mermaid,
I was hoping to find Nemo and his father down here in the ocean. Well the sharks are circling me and I need your help.
You can have my bike for when your legs return. Sing me out of this one please...
We all love good music... I think the sharks will hear the songs. Please call Nemo, and leave me down here to feed fish in your world.
Love,
Santa
