HERE'S HOW IT WORKS: (it can't get any easier, unless of course we just buy everyone a ticket...not!)
(1) Once a month we're going to give away tickets to some very cool stuff.
(2) Every time you send the LINEUP e-newsletter to a friend by using the "SEND TO A FRIEND" link (see it below? you can't miss it), you'll earn a chance to win a pair of tickets to some cool stuff. One prize per month per winner
allowed. (Hey eager beavers, don't click on the sign below, it won't work. You have to use the one in you regular weekly LINEUP e-newsletter.)
(3) Of course we want (okay..."prefer") you to send THE LINEUP to a friend or relative that isn't a LINEUP subscriber...(smile)
(4) Don't worry, your friends won't get spammed with annoying emails from all over the globe
(privacy policy). All we'll do is send them THE LINEUP...and we're assuming that if you like THE LINEUP, so will they.
(5) If you win, you get to choose which available cool stuff you want. After you've made your selection, we'll tell the world (that's our job). Tickets not claimed within 3 days of email notification will be released to the
runner-up winners...sorry, but we can't let them go to waste.
Got it? Good! So go ahead, let the games begin...BE OUR GUEST!
