In a Beach House with a Grizzly Bear

I recently discovered a band that I just love, love, love. A friend has passed on to me this amazing fan video for a band I hadn't heard. After that I gathered up what music from them I could find like a little squirrel storing for winter. I realized they were coming through SD and kept meaning to get tickets. Finally I clicked over to the Belly Up's website to purchase my way into heaven, but I was too slow on the draw. Sold out!
After a week of brooding, I received an email notification from Sezio. They were having a contest to win tickets. This was it. My big chance. All I had to do was make a collage with the following items: grizzly bear, beach house, belly, me and a poodle (just because). A fervor took over me as I set out on my mission. I finished and hit send. Then I waited. The day of reckoning came and I'd assumed I didn't win the prize. There was so much more I could've done with it! Much to my pleasant surprise I did win. Yes! I'd secured a night of musical delight!
A delight it was. Aside from the milling in and out of the extremely crammed front audience area by douchebags holding glasses of douche juice, Shangri-la had descended upon us. Beach House sang sweet lullubies then Grizzly Bear ended their tour with enchanting melodies. Ahhhh.
