AUSTRALIA - PUMA ARCHIVE UNCOVERED – WIN TICKETS TO SEE AMAZING BANDS PLAYING SETS OF COVER SONGS

If you had to pinpoint the highlight of many of the live shows you’ve seen in the last ten years, you’d likely admit that is was the moment when the band you were watching executed a reference-fuelled cover version of one of their favourite songs. Sure, seeing Ryan Adams do his own stuff is fine but seeing him do his take on The Rolling Stones’ “Brown Sugar” is, well, better.

Taking this idea and running with it, Puma are presenting the Archive Uncovered series - parties in Melbourne and Sydney where a bunch of amazing bands will be brought together to play nothing but cover songs harking back to the music that they love and respect.

The bands taking on the covers challenge are:

SYDNEY - January 5, The Metro Theatre
The Hives (Sweden)
Children Collide
Boy + Girl

MELBOURNE - December 28, The Hi Fi Bar & Ballroom
Cassette Kids
Children Collide
Hot Little Hands
Boy + Girl

We have 50 double passes for each city to giveaway. To win, have a bash at answering this relatively straightforward question.

What’s a song you’d like covered and why?

Send answers to vice@pumaarchive.com.au with your full name and relevant city in the subject line e.g. Puma Sydney or Puma Melbourne

If you miss out here, there’s a few other ways to get tickets and paying isn’t one of them. You can either:

1. Get FREE tickets when you buy Puma Archive from PUMA, Hype DC and Glue stores* (while they last)
2. Win tickets online at pumaarchive.com.au
3. Get lucky with one of the giveaways around town.

britney speares - opps i did again - basically its a classically hands down catcy song (esp.the beginnings keyboard bassline). mike patton covered it with ?? - although it was in sarcasm, the song still rocked and i felt i could tell they did enjoy playing it.
