dave_rawlings_gillian_welch_asheville_2015Here’s your chance to win a pair of tickets to see the Dave Rawlings Machine with Gillian Welch at The Orange Peel in Asheville on April 24. (That’s Friday folks.)

Leave a comment on this post, or at the post on Asheville Grit, and you’ll be entered to win a pair of tickets.

The show was just announced Saturday. (The Earl Sweatshirt show that had been scheduled for this date is moving to August.) Willie Watson will open, and other potential special guests are going to play a run of surprise shows next week, according to The Peel.

Tickets officially go on sale Monday and are available here.

Rawlings tours with Gillian Welch, his partner in life and music for 20 years. Welch is known for her sometimes dark lyrics, while Rawlings makes his mark with incredible instrumental pieces. They have played sold-out shows to appreciative audiences in Asheville over the past few years.

The Machine is also known for having special guests play in on sets. Members of the Punch Brothers and Old Crow Medicine Show have jumped in, as has Led Zeppelin legend John Paul Jones.

Tickets can be purchased on Monday here and will sell out fast. But if you want a chance to win a pair of tickets, just comment below or at Asheville Grit.

    So even though twice as many people commented here, somehow both winners were selected from the Grit thread responses . . . that’s fine, but it would have been nice if you had posted to let us know, or told us that the answer would only show up over there. Sometimes (like when you don’t put up a single new post all week) it feels like you’re slowly abandoning this site . . .

    So did anyone win the tickets? And why is my first post on this thread STILL awaiting moderation several days after I posted it?
