The Morning Benders kick off their North American fall tour at Oak Cliff‘s historic Kessler Theater on Saturday, October 9, with special guests Twin Sister & Cults. We have 5 pairs of tickets to give away for this one courtesy of the venue; just leave a comment below or tweet @us if you’d like to attend, and I’ll pick the winners closer to the night of the show.

What a great lineup! I would love tickets to this!
PLZ PLZ PLZ!
I would love to go to the show!!
that is me and my fiancé’s anniversary! these tickets would be a great surprise for her (unless of course she is reading these comments… hi babe!)
Show on a Saturday! Count me in… and free tickets would be even better!!!
tickets please!
I’ve been going to Morning Benders shows routinely for the last 4 years and I have all the albums. If I win the tickets I will probably just give them away and buy some anyway!
(sort of) stuck in college station, tx. getting me out of here for a free, great show would be incredibly appreciated.
My friend and I would love to go to this show!! A pair of free tickets would be fabulous, as we’re both broke college students haha; thanks for the generous offertunity guys!
ooh! oooh! pick me! pick me! pick me!
this is fantastic!
I would LOVE to go this show, and even better if it’s free. love the morning benders.
I would love an excuse to go up to Dallas and see my friends/these amazing bands. :D
Getting these tickets would be the absolute best. Last time I saw the morning benders I ended up dancing in the crowd with a drunk Charlie Brand at what was one of the most fun shows of my life. Whenever people comment that there is no good music being made nowadays I know they’re wrong because there are total gems of songs like Excuses being made for what seems like the specific purpose of playing loudly in cars with your friends and mixtapes for ‘special someones’ and making your heart swell.
Jon, Chris, Julian and Tim, I ABSOLUTELY ADORE YOU GUYS! I saw you guys in Austin during SXSW and could not get enough! I went to all your shows there and I am willing to drive out to Dallas since you guys cant make it to Houston :( . This would be SO amazing and I’m really excited to see you guys (on the verge of jumping up and down). I’m so happy for you, Morning Benders! I need to win these tickets because Jon Chu’s head is so big it has a moon.
yeah man, throw my name in the hat
free tickets! no whammies! i’m pressing my luck!
Please pick me! I have five cats. Make ‘em proud.
Por favor
I would love to go to the show!!!
Am I too late?
I only listen to Twin Sister these days. These tunes narrate every moment of my life.
Diggin’ the ‘Excuses’ vid as well.
Sticks and stones may break my bones, but this show would break my bones way better.
Sticks and stones may break my bones, but this show would break my bones way better.
Love the both of them, pick me please!
Would love to go!
The Morning Benders – “Excuses”
Awesome song…reminds of the ’60′s & ’70′s. The orchestra was a great touch! =)

i have a newfound love for the morning benders after seeing this video
Maybe daydream, nation.
I want that!
Please,
also, i went to Lake Highlands high school with Chris and Annie, but i was younger, thats why you should give me stuff instead of other people
thanks!
Great Line up!
tix!
I want to go to there!
would greatly appreciate tickets to this show.
WOW! I cannot miss this! Twin Sister was so great live at the Loft, and THEMORNINGBENDERS! Must see! Nothing I’d rather do than go to a GvsB show. There cannot be enough!
Oh, I see, yes, hmm.

This will be such a great show. I want a ticket man!
Fuck it, I’m going free tickets or not. I caught Twin Sister with Bear In Heaven in Los Angeles recently and was upset that I was out of town for their show at The Loft. These folks are worth catching!
mmm that’d be pretty much my dream lineup. I’ve had the Cults 7″ & twin sister cassette & vinyl on constant repeat since debuts on my radio show. I’d take some excellent Polaroids and share with gvsb for the collection, maybe even use some of my px silvershade just for you guys.
Bests!

I want to be part of the wall of sound.
Listened to The Morning Benders all summer long. Would love to win tix! :)
please please please
pick me!
need an awesome show to go to..esp with the xx being sold out ):
When I saw this, I danced to Promises about three times. I then proceeded to text a couple of my friends, and their replies were all along the line of “OMG, DAMMIT ANNA, WE’RE GOING. NO EXCUSES. THIS IS A COLD WAR.”
I’d love the free tickets, but even if I don’t receive them, I’ll still be attending with some of the biggest fans in the world- my friends.
It’s going to be an amazing show. I can’t even wait.
LOVE!!!!!!! please <33
I PROMISE i’l go!
IF YOU DO NOT PICK ME I WILL DRIVE UP TO DALLAS ANYWAY AND JUMP OFF THE TOP OF ONE OF THOSE STUPID, AWESOME NEON SKYSCRAPERS YALL ARE SO INTO. No no of course not but I love & miss Oak Cliff, am legit-ly into each of these bands, and have $6.80 in my only bank account. Pick me! My twin lives in Dallas and we’ll take our creepy, funny identical-ness to the show, deeply appreciating it.
