Win Tix to Toots and the Maytals!

A couple years ago I saw Toots and the Maytals play the stadium at Bumbershoot. I was utterly blown away by the amount of energy thrown out there. Not just on a song or two but throughout the entire set!! The man is a venue-rockin MACHINE! And he’s been doing it almost non-stop since 1967.

.

This Friday, May 21st, the man-the myth-the machine is bringing the famous Kingston sound to the Showbox MKT. If you’re not familiar, just think about every Sublime song you’ve ever heard. Those are Toots songs (well mostly) the most familiar being “54-46 was my number.”

.

Rumor has it that the band is putting together a new release but as past experience shows that will not stop them from playing all the greats. It’s their bread-n-butta, Mon. (Update: Toots and the Maytals actually JUST released their new album Flip & Twist. A reader just saw him in LA and  he definitely sticks to the classics)

.

If you’d like to check out the show on Subsonic for freezies, just drop us a note here: with “Toots” in the subject. Winner will be pulled at random tomorrow afternoon (5/20) at 4:00 and you will be notified by email. Oh.. you gotta be 21. (Congrats to Ian for picking up those tix!!)
