Sing for free tickets to Gordon Lightfoot

For reasons I don’t entirely understand, there are six tickets on my desk to Gordon Lightfoot’s concert at Cobb Energy Centre Friday, Feb. 15, at 8 p.m.

I can’t go to the concert, so you can have the tickets for free.

All you have to do is call my office voicemail and sing me one of the following three Gordon Lightfoot songs: “Sundown,” “If You Could Read My Mind” and “The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald.”

Sing me at least 15 seconds of “Sundown” and, bam, you qualify for two tickets. Sing me at least 15 seconds of “If You Could Read My Mind” and, bam, you qualify for two tickets. Sing me the first three verses of “The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald” and you qualify for two tickets. Sing all three and you may get all six tickets.

Be sure to tell me your name and how to reach you. You can pick up the tickets at our office.

In the unlikely event that more than one person calls me for this contest, I’ll divide up the tickets between my favorite entrants.

My office phone is 404-614-1888. The deadline is 9 a.m. Friday.

Note: I may record your singing and put it on this blog. Naturally, I will not include your contact info in the podcast.

Good luck and God speed!
