The Treasure Island Music Festival is fast approaching, and an awesome event like this isn’t free! Lucky for you, we’re giving away tickets!
One lucky person will win TWO two-day festival passes, simply by e-mailing contest@thebaybridged.com with the subject line “Treasure Island Contest” and telling us which one band you simply must see at the festival and why. Contest ends Monday, September 15th at Noon. We’ll draw one winner at random and notify them via e-mail.
One of the best things about the TI fest is the fact that it features a bunch of great local bands alongside some of the world’s best. The festival organizers recently posted the full schedule and set times, and here’s an mp3-stocked guide to some of the Bay Area bands to check out at the festival:
