FREE TICKETS: The Wallflowers with Everest @ Fonda Theater, LA 10/9/12

October 01. 2012 | By Trina N. Green

Ahh, welcome back.

It’s been a long time coming but on October 2nd The Wallflowers will release their 6th studio album, Glad All Over. Jakob Dylan (vox, guitar) returns with his original bandmates Greg Richling (bass), Rami Jaffee (keyboards), longtime guitarist Stuart Mathis and now joined by drummer Jack Irons (yes, that Jack Irons formerly of Pearl Jam and Red Hot Chili Peppers).

Upon first listen, the album’s first single, “Reboot the Mission,” has a familiar feel to it, doesn’t it?

Yes, Dylan named dropped the one and only Joe Strummer because the track has The Clash’s trademark shuffle written all over it along with Mick Jones on guitar and vocals. Now that’s an honorable homage to great music.

In a show that has “awesome” written all over, The Wallflowers and LA’s own Everest will rock the Fonda Theatre on October 9th and you want to be there. So send us your full name in an email to contests@theowlmag.com with “The Wallflowers @ the Fonda Theatre″ as the subject line and we’ll pick an uber lucky winner.
