When they get away from the early Beatles, I'll try to win tickets. I want Helter Skelter not-I want to hold your hand! They need to "return" to drugs!

I should get 2 tickets to see The Return because I saw them the last time they performed in Barnesville and it was amazing! I have been waiting to have a chance to see them again. I am also saving for a wedding and could really use the extra money!
Pick me!
Thank You!

I should get 2 tickets to see the Return because my husband is a full time student (and works full time in addition to being a full time father) and he has to write a paper for his Music class about this tribute band. I should get the tickets so that I can give them to him and a one of his friends, take our son to the babysitter and finally get a girls night out!!! haha

I think I should get the tickets because I have been a fan since maybe 1995 or so when they were calling themselves the Roaches. I know a lot of random trivia about them like the fact that they are the Atlanta Braves Band of the year. I could keep going, but lets just say I think I deserve them because I am one of their biggest fans

I want to hold your hand...

Does anyone know if advance tickets are available and where to get them?

Tickets are now on sale at the school board office and will also be available at the door.

I should not get the tickets, but friends of mine should. They have a 2 year old son who is battling brain cancer, and have not gotten outside the hospital much. Maybe they could use this night to get away for a couple hours, and enjoy each others' company. They could certainly use a smile right now!

I've seen this group before, and they are really, really good. Lots of fun!

I should win two free tickets to see the 'Return' because I am trying to foster an appreciation of the Beatles' music in my 13 year old. I was surprised to learn that he has a lot of Beatles' music on his iPod so here is my big chance. Money is tight but I've got to do what I have to do for his future...and ours!!

I was a Beatle fan from the beginning. They came to America when I was in fifth grade and I've been a fan ever since. I have many Beatle albums and still love their music. I saw both of their movies, "A Hard Days Night" and "Help." I even won a contest recently on a cruise ship because I knew what song was on the other side of "I Saw Her Standing There." The answer was "I Wanna Hold Your Hand."

Well to anybody reading they are a great band. I knew one of the singers before he became "famous". lol They are a good group of guys who love what they do. Why should I win tickets???? I dont really have an answer but I will use because I have a crappy job. I am the CEO, CFO, PRESIDENT AND VICE PRESIDENT AND CUSTOMER SERVICE. Im a full time mom. No days off, crappy pay and I handle all the complaints...but I wouldnt change it for anything. Did that get me any brownie points???? lol to whoever wins I hope you have a blast!

I believe I should get free tickets to see the Return because I am a hugh Beatles fan. My son, who is four, can sing most Beatles songs better than the adults who were around when the Beatles performed. I also saw them as the Roaches at the Gordon Auditorium in 1995. If not me...I am also in favor of Tonya Eubanks friends enjoying the tickets. Amy if I win I will take you!!!
