gorilla vs. bear fest poster giveaway

Thu. June 2nd, 2011

Just got these limited Gorilla vs. Bear Festival posters in the mail, and they look so good, we decided we had to give a few away. Only two ways to get your hands on one: you can be one of the first 200 people through the doors at the Granada on July 23 (buy tix), or you can win one here.

We’re giving 10 away to you guys: to enter, just like us on Facebook, AND leave a comment below with your favorite album of 2011 so far. We’ll pick 10 winners at random on July 1. In the meantime, enjoy some jams from a few of the bands playing the fest (and check some more shots of the poster) below:

mp3:
White Denim :: Drug
Shabazz Palaces :: Swerve… the reeping of all that is worthwhile (Noir not withstanding)
Pure X :: Twisted Mirror
Julianna Barwick :: The Magic Place
