Death Cab for Cutie has made a name for itself in a relatively short period of time as one of the most interesting indie rock bands. Many bands, both indie and other kinds, are really aggressive with their music. They will shout at you to show you the feeling that they are trying to get across. Death Cab gets the tone through to you in the most low-key way possible. One newspaper described them as having a “literate, whispery style.” Last year, their album, Narrow Stairs, which was not only nominated for several Grammys, but also was their first studio album to reach #1 on the Billboard charts. The unanimous favorite single from the album, “I Will Possess Your Heart”, has become one of the most talked about songs in the last year. In their seven studio albums, they seem to have grown significantly between each one and have also become more successful with each release. They have positioned themselves as one of the powerhouses of indie rock today. With your Death Cab for Cutie concert tickets in hand, you get the unique experience of seeing this band perform in person!
You don’t often get the chance to see a major World Cup level soccer game in America. Of course, there’s always the MLS, but it’s not the same. People who really love soccer get a completely different flavor when they see an international FIFA game. On April 1st, a FIFA World Cup qualifying game will be played in Nashville for the first time. The match is between the USA men’s national team and the national team of Trinidad and Tobago. The next World Cup competition will be held in 2010 in South Africa. The previous one, in 2006, was held in Germany, where Italy won in the final against France. Those are often very strong teams. But the American team has been improving over the years and may really have a good chance this time around. However, they must first qualify to play in the tournament. The road to the FIFA World Cup goes through Nashville, Tennessee; why don’t you go through Nashville as well and catch one of the best soccer matches in America. US men’s soccer tickets are available here at Vivid Seats.

March Madness is just around the corner! Are you a fan of college basketball? This year’s NCAA basketball season has been one of the most unusual. Through much of the season, Wake Forest was undefeated, though now they’re ranked at #7 with a record of 17-2, but they’re still a force to be reckoned with. UConn has a record of 20-1 and is ranked #1 in the country right now. Duke, which is usually a heavy favorite, is at #4 according to the AP. Oklahoma and North Carolina are the other two teams in the top four nationally right now. Every year, the NCAA Selection Committee divides 65 teams into the bracket and determines what region they will play in. Then they will play down to a champion in each region who will then play in the Final Four in early April. Last year, we saw the top ranked team in each region go all the way to the Final Four: Kansas, North Carolina, Memphis, and UCLA. If you remember, Kansas won the tournament in the end. It’s going to be an exciting tournament this year, including several teams that haven’t ranked very high in recent years. Do you want to see a regional game? How about the Final Four? Take a look at the 2009 March Madness tickets we have and you will be able to see some of the best games of the year in person!
