A friend got me into Silverspun pickups about 6 months ago and the CD hasn't left my cd player since... I would love to repay her generosity by taking her to a concert! Its an original sound and worthy of sharing with friends!

My wife loves the Silversun Pickups! Her sister is in a band in Atlanta that lists Silversun as one of their inspirations. Caught some live acoustic stuff from Silversun on 'Soundstage' or some other similar television show recenlty and.........what do you know........they can now count me among their biggest fans as I'm totally hooked. Great feel to their music, lyrics and vocals.

I am the biggest Silversun Pickups fan in Smaller Indiana! Seeing them at the Vogue about a year or so ago was a revelation. I have seen hundreds (maybe thousands) of concerts and am a musician myself. This is one of the rare bands that actually exceeds its excellent recorded output live. All three of my music-loving friends who went with me agreed. Some of us were on the fence until we saw them in concert and from then on we're devoted fans. We were unable to make the trip over to Bogarts in Cincy to see them weeks back and I would love to see them in an intimate setting.

SP's latest album Swoon is on permanent rotation in my iPhone and the main family car. It's one of those rare albums that you listen to all the way through every time and sing along with every song. SP's first album was no different. My wife and I are both WTTS listeners and I have infected her with my love for this band! I would love to win!

I enjoy the Silversun Pickups enough to go see them play a studio session in Indy!

Silversun Pickups ROCKS. Only thing better than winning this would be to see them play both Carnavas and Swoon front to back when they play the Vogue later this month! I have blisters on both my feet because these albums ROCKED MY SOCKS OFF!

I was listening to the Yeah Yeah Yeahs on an internet music site and it suggested that I would also like the Silversun Pickups. The first song I looked up was Little Lover's So Polite and I really liked the lyrics, I felt I could relate to them, and the music itself was different and frankly, really good. I proceeded to listen to more of their songs and Three Seed became my all time favorite. Their diverse talent is definitely something I haven't exactly seen since. I've even introduced a few friends to them, and they all seem to agree =)
