Win Tickets to Concerts; Just RSVP for Your Chance

Since February I've been planning a trip to St. Louis on April Fools Day weekend (this weekend 4/1-4/3). The purpose behind this weekend-long journey is to see moe. in concert as well as to attend a Cardinals game or two, since it is also baseball's opening weekend. Anyway, I RSVP'd to the moe. concert through facebook, partially as a reminder to myself and to see how packed the show might be. (<-through observing the amount of people RSVP'd, which is sometimes not an accurate measure) A few days ago, I revisited the event page on facebook and realized I had won tickets simply by RSVP 'ing over the social-networking site. I was rather pleasantly surprised, even though I already had tickets. An increasing amount of bands are using this strategy to gain some understanding of their fans and following. It has turned into an interactive process intended to provoke fan/audience participation and collect information about music-related markets. I'm gonna' get me some moe.!
