Win Tix to See Chuck Palahniuk or Michael Ian Black & Megan McCain Plus Discount Codes!

The Bay's best newsletter for underground events & news

*Please note that this is two separate giveaways, so each needs to be entered separately.
**Also make sure to read to the end of the post so you can get your little paws on the discount codes since, to be honest, most of you are not gonna win.

Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy, do I have some good giveaways for you today! I’m giving away a pair of tickets to two awesome events being put on by the Commonwealth Club (one pair to each event). The first is an evening with Chuck Palahniuk in which he’ll be in conversation with Tom Barbash discussing the remixed version of Palahniuk’s 1999 novel Invisible Monsters. This bad-ass sounding event will be happening at The Castro Theatre on Monday 7/16 at 7pm. All the event info is here

The following night will see liberal comedian Michael Ian Black and conservative columnist Meghan McCain in conversation with Joan Walsh discussing their new book America, You Sexy Bitch: A Love Letter to Freedom. This is guaranteed to be hilarious and will be going down at The Castro Theatre on Tuesday, 7/17 at 7pm. All the event info is here.

If you can get me a date with Meghan McCain, you get both sets of tickets for free. 🙂

To win the tickets email contests@brokeassstuart.com. Make sure to put “Chuck Palahniuk” or “Black and McCain” in the title so we know which show you’re entering to win tickets for. The winners will be announced on my twitter account on Tuesday 7/10 at noon. Entrants will be added to my email list.
