To the So Cali Peeps!

UPDATE (5:44 PM PST): Well, that was a cool contest. I didn't get tix. I was caller numbers 17, 27, and 35. Darn, oh well. Have fun to those who won! :)

Here are the tweets from beforehand:

Check out the new tweet from Switchfoot:

- For our So. Cal friends: Follow @987LA for details on how to win tix to hang and listen to new tunes w/us in L.A. this Friday!

^I am so going to try to win this. I used to listen to 987 a couple years back, so it's always exciting to hear a local radio station pumping Switchfoot.

Here's what 987 had to say on their twitter feed about the event:

Any @switchfoot fans? We're hosting Ditch Friday w/them at our Downtown Penthouse. Hear "Mess of Me" on The New Music Show Sundays at 9PM

^More details to come hopefully! Looks like they're giving "Mess of Me" some spinnage… which brings us to our next section of today's update!

And lastly, our friend Bryant sent me this awesome wallpaper set to the lyrics of "Always." It's not his work, so if this is made by you, two things!

1. Email us at wereawakening@yahoo.com letting us know you made it, and we'll definitely credit you!

2. Could you forward us a hi-res copy? It's phenomenal!
