The Vines Secret Free Gig
Time to start sleuthing through all of the internet. Converse are slipping sneaky tickets to this one-off gig where you'll least expect them. Follow the clues to get free (music) with The Vines.
Overview
Time to start sleuthing through all of the internet. Converse are hosting a series of amazing A-list gigs in Melbourne, Sydney and New Zealand, and they're hiding tickets where you'll least expect them. So far we know that The Vines — who are all about the freebies lately — and Bloods are playing a free show somewhere in Melbourne on Wednesday, October 22; Remi and Collarbones are hitting up Sydney the following night; and a fresh lineup is heading over to New Zealand soon after. Oh, and we have your first clue.
Converse sneakily posted an ad on Seek for a casual "fist pumper". "This temporary, one night only, position is open for a front row fist pumper at a free gig," the ad read. "The successful applicant will show a willingness to party in the front row of the mosh pit ... [They also must] appreciate the epic sounds of bands, The Vines and Bloods". In case you haven't worked it out already, this is your ticket.
If you're from Melbourne and maintain any of the above characteristics, we highly recommend applying for this job. They're currently taking "applications" for the position at [email protected], but maybe trade in a full cover letter for a few photos of you in the mosh. This is possibly the only time making a resume link to your Facebook photos is a good thing.
UPDATE: We can now reveal the show will be held at Ding Dong Lounge at 8pm. Check out the Converse Facebook page for more details on how to get tickets.
