In Which Dave Barnes Gives You Free Music And Food

One of my favorite singer/songwriters in the whole wide world is Dave Barnes. This information comes as no surprise whatsoever if you’ve been reading here for awhile, but if you’re newer here and haven’t heard me speak of Dave Barnes, then let me just assure you that he and his music are THE AWESOMEST.

Totally a word, by the way.

(And if you’ve never heard the soulful musical stylings of Dave Barnes before, you can listen up right here or right here.)

So today Dave Barnes is releasing a new EP called “You, The Night & Candlelight,” and as a result of that I am doing a giveaway so delightful that you will not even believe it. Or maybe you will believe it. But still. This giveaway is a TREAT, my friends.

Here’s the deal.

The very talented (and funny!) Dave Barnes has generously offered to give away ten copies of his new EP (I assure you that it is chock-full-o-musical treasures) AND a very special grand prize.

What is the grand prize, you ask?

Well, it would be my pleasure to share the details.

The grand prize is a copy of his new EP PLUS a personal Valentine’s Day phone call from the Dave Barnes PLUS a $50 gift card so that you and someone you love can enjoy a night on the town. A night with candlelight, hopefully. Because I think y’all know how much I appreciate consistency with a theme.

So, if you’d like to be eligible to win one of these fabulous prizes, here’s what you do:

1) Leave a comment and tell me who you’ll take out for dinner if you win the $50 gift card.

AND.

2) If you’d like more than one entry in this giveaway (which will close on February 14th, by the way), then head over to Dave Barnes’ website, register to win a free iTouch, and then come back here and leave ANOTHER comment telling me that you registered. That’ll get you a second entry.

AND.

3) If you’d like a third chance to win, then mention his new EP or http://davebarnes.com (no need to mention my blog – just Dave Barnes’ website) on Twitter, Facebook or on your blog, then come back here and leave me ANOTHER comment. That’ll get you a third entry.

Oh, the day is filled with many winning romantical possibilities, is it not? I mean, a $50 gift card can buy a lot of bacon for you and your loved one at the restaurant of your choosing. And I think you’ll agree that bacon is certainly the most romantic of all the meats.

Have fun, everybody!

p.s. If you’re hoping for the gift card but don’t want to wait on the music, you can buy the EP for only $3.99 on iTunes right now. Oh, it is a bargain. And did I mention the songs are very romance-y? Because they are very romance-y indeed.

This giveaway is now closed.

I’m actually going to see Dave Barnes in concert for the first time on Thursday night – I’m REALLY excited!

Considering I don’t have a significant other at this time, I’d likely take another fabulous single female out to dinner as we wait on our Mr. Right. :o)

Heather February 3, 2009 at 3:37 pm

Marla Taviano February 3, 2009 at 3:49 pm

My husband!!!

Superchikk February 3, 2009 at 3:49 pm

I would go out with my Husband. Being a Mom of a toddler doesn’t get you many nights out with the Hubbs, as I am usually collapsed into a heap of exhaustion by 8pm.

Amy in AL February 3, 2009 at 3:49 pm

Dave Barnes rocks!! I’m so excited about the new music! Oh, and I’d take the hubby to dinner – somewhere without a drive-thru or playground, no less!

Shannon P. February 3, 2009 at 3:50 pm

I would take my husband–who works fulltime and is in school fulltime–out to dinner at a place of his choosing to thank him for his hard work on behalf of our family.

Jennifer February 3, 2009 at 3:51 pm

I twittered “Zaankali http://davebarnes.com/ Check this out! Register to win an iPod Touch.”

I think that covers the bases now I will cross my fingers (and toes).

Smiles!

Rhonda February 3, 2009 at 3:51 pm

My husband would be my dinner date, of course!

Brandy February 3, 2009 at 3:53 pm

I’ve never won one of these things, but I’ll keep trying :)

I would take out a bunch of friends. And we’d eat too much and talk just enough :)

laurie February 3, 2009 at 3:54 pm

Dave Barnes is one of my favorites too! I would take my husband, Steve to dinner.

NancysLostandFound February 3, 2009 at 3:55 pm

My husband and I are really complete opposites, but the main thing we do have in common is that we like to eat, so it will have to be him.

Emily February 3, 2009 at 3:56 pm

I love David Barns! I’ve seen you mention him before, but have honestly been too lazy to take the 3 minutes to check him out. That is so the kind of music I listen to!

I would definitely go out to dinner with my husband. We’ve only been on 1 date in the last 3-4 months, so this would be a welcome opportunity!

Amy in AL February 3, 2009 at 3:57 pm

Registered for the iPod! Thanks!!

Brandy February 3, 2009 at 3:57 pm

And I just did all the other stuff too! Rock on :)

ReneƩ February 3, 2009 at 4:00 pm

I signed up for the I-touch!

Jess February 3, 2009 at 4:00 pm

My husband would love a free dinner for Valentine’s Day. He was so romantic last year… I’d love to return the favor!

jessica February 3, 2009 at 4:00 pm

I would take my husband out to dinner for his birthday/valentine’s day. I registered and am posting a link to your site and his site right now.

Thanks BooMama!

Teresa February 3, 2009 at 4:00 pm

I would take my hubby, Ricky.

erin February 3, 2009 at 4:02 pm

I would definitely take out my husband. Easy question! :)

Kim February 3, 2009 at 4:03 pm

If I even thought of taking anyone but my hubby, I’d be in trouble! Besides I don’t know very many people here yet. LOL

Jennifer February 3, 2009 at 4:07 pm

Love Dave Barnes. A couple of years ago the social club (Baptist college word for sorority) paid Dave to come sing just for us at our banquet! It was great!

I would take my husband, huge DB fan, to dinner with me!

Kim February 3, 2009 at 4:07 pm

On my facebook:
Kimberly would like to win Dave Barnes new EP “You, The Night, & Candlelight” and by mentioning it here I get multiple entries in BooMama’s giveaway. 8:07pm

Hi. I would be taking my new husband to Dave Barnes–we both love him and listened to him a lot in Hawaii on our honeymoon!

Lynn February 3, 2009 at 4:11 pm

I would take my husband out for a romantic dinner.

Jennifer February 3, 2009 at 4:11 pm

On my twitter! (jfrancis1)

jineen February 3, 2009 at 4:12 pm

i don’t watch the bahelor, not because i don’t like it , because i work nights and am never home, and no…i have not joined the 21st century and gotten ti-vo or some other recording device with which to savor all the night time goodness on tv :) however i know i can always “see” it here and feel that i am getting all the best parts anyway! so if i won the gift card i would take my husband out, we have been married for 8.5 years, and this april been best friends for 17 years (we met when we were 10) so i would take my true valentine out without worrying about the cost of the place:) thanks for being generous!

Lauren Sterling February 3, 2009 at 4:12 pm

AND…I registered for the ipod.

Kaye February 3, 2009 at 4:14 pm

Will give this my best 1-2-3 chances. And would take my husband to dinner, IF I could get him out of the house:)

Rebekah @Mundane Musings February 3, 2009 at 4:16 pm

I’d definitely take my wonderful hubs out for dinner!
