    My wife really wants to see this show but i’m too cheap to buy the tix. Let’s make it happen, Jake.

    Winning these tickets would make my weekend!

    I missed Bela last time he was in town because … I think I was at a fundraiser in Chicago.

    Yeah, that’s it … Chicago.

    I haven’t eaten in three days.

    Winning these tickets would make things better. I think…

    Wait where am I?

    please…add to my cache of good fortune.

    I’ve had a crush on Bela since new grass revival came to Louisville for the kfc bluegrass fest in the mid 80′s. Draw my name so I can drool blissfully.

    Winning this contest would make my day….mainly because I’ve never won anything in my life, and Bela is awesome.

    Dude, seriously. I think I deserve this.

  • 9 Jimmy // Oct 6, 2009 at 3:57 pm

    My wife wants to see Bela more than Joe Burgan’s wife. Or Amy Shir’s hubby, for that matter ;-)

    Seriously – these people don’t even know that Zakir Hussain is badder than Bela Fleck. Shakti, baby.

    Would love to go… I could use something good.

    I want to win these tickets not for myself, but for my son, Griffin, who has been a Bela fan for at least ten years. Grif is a musician and song-writer, and would get a big charge out of seeing Bela Fleck.

    so are we spose to beg for these tickets? that doesnt seem like it will help with the random drawing? This contest is rigged

    been following Bela since New Grass Revival days. We need to go to this. Please…..

    I just heard my roommate and his girlfriend have sex. Free Bela Fleck tickets would make my day a lot better.

    I want tickets. I saw the trio a few weeks ago in Austin, TX. Thoroughly enjoyable.

  • 17 ericathomas // Oct 6, 2009 at 8:33 pm

    Would love to go! Thanks!

    I’ve never heard of the group but they do sound very interesting from the clip and I’d certainly be glad to get those tickets.

  • 19 kytriplets // Oct 7, 2009 at 8:20 am

    Bella Fleck is superb! I’d LOVE to win!

  • 20 tom in irish hill // Oct 7, 2009 at 11:17 am

    I need to go. I really do.

  • 21 amandal // Oct 7, 2009 at 11:29 am

    Yes please!!!

  • 22 muckraker // Oct 7, 2009 at 6:23 pm

    I always thought instrumentalists were too tedious until I saw Bela Fleck. This guy rocks the house more than any singer ever did.

  • 23 tammytheburke // Oct 10, 2009 at 11:45 am

    Thanks for the tickets – great show. I was especially mesmerized by Zakir Hussein. Now, to find a used tabla set.

    Glad you enjoyed the show!
