2. Last year we have gave away 3-day passes to Coachella and had you guys tell me why I was Pretty Much Amazing, but as you might have imagined, it was full of ass kissing and it got old really fast. So this year I’m going to have you tell me why you are Pretty Much Amazing (and why you deserve these passes). Hopefully we can make this a yearly thing here at PMA.

I’m PMA because I spend all my hard-earned money on concert tickets… Clearly, I have a problem. But you can’t deny my passion for the music (enduring thronging masses, fights, weed clouds, no bathroom breaks, long hours standing in line, long hours waiting for a show to start, concert buddies who talk too much, lack of concert buddies, drunken teenyboppers, and fellow concert-goers who fart/burp in my general vicinity). In short, I’ll endure almost anything to enjoy a few moments of pure, unadulterated musical bliss. And that’s either PMA or PMC (pretty much crazy).

I’m pretty much amazing because I live and breathe music. Music is my passion and getting the chance to hear new bands or new material from fav bands is like a fucking orgasm. not to kiss ass here, but I do believe this site is something else, you introduce me to new music every time I check out this site, this site is pretty much like a drug. I’m also pretty much amazing because I speak Spanish, play the acoustic guitar, can do back flips, and I’m a huge Coldplay and Vampire Weekend fan, they make my life better everyday.
To put it simply, I’m PMA because I don’t want to go to this festival. I hate Vampire Weekend and would never be associated with a festival where they are invited to play.
I’m pretty much amazing because I love music. It’s my only source of happiness and enjoyment, after a long day at work or classes early in the morning music never ceases to amaze me. I would love these tickets so much. And also, if you read this Arthur, I want to say hello. I met you at the Girl Talk concert in mlps and I remember you telling me your plans to bike down the coast. Best of luck!
good lineup… http://www.eardrumspop.blogspot.com/
i’m pretty much amazing because i’m spending my july in NY working my ass off to build a portfolio that hopefully art schools will like. i’m now very, very broke because of this very, very expensive program. a free festival on the last weekend of my stay would just be so fantastic!

i’m pma because i visit this blog and i’ve been working like crazy putting in extra time on the weekends and could use a great weekend in ny to listen to my favourite bands that is sure to be one to remember!
I’m PMA because despite all the extra hours of work I put in, and all the sleepless nights to get my pregnant girlfriend everything I need, I don’t feel any hate or regrets about it. Being a dad will open my mind to more about life, parenthood, and more importantly Family. I can’t wait till Late May. The festival just won’t be just about music, but about being together and enjoying it with thousands around us.
And oh yea, these would be great for me and her to attend for a long 9 months of screaming, food cravings, emergency drives and phone calls and of course labor that we (but mainly her) will have to endure. Yep… I Love Her
My birthday is 4 days before the start of this festival so nice b-day gift too.

I’m PMA because I will base all of my other summer plans around these three days of heaven. Plus I’m from Texas, and need to get away from these hicks who listen to country garbage.
Also, I’m PMA because I go to church when my Mom asks me to.
im pretty much amazing because i check pma every day multiple times a day since the very beginning, i love discovering new music, so many of my favorite bands are going to be playing the festival (vampire weekend, coldplay, mgmt, the national fleet foxes, the ting tings, etc etc etc), and it would be so awesome to go!!! i’ve also been having a pretty bad year getting adjusted to a school i dont like and this would be the best pick me up. it would be an experience that i would never forget!!
I am not PMA because I can’t enter this competition because I can’t afford to fly from NZ to NJ as much as I’d love to. However, I cannot resist saying MAN this is a cool site! PMA is, quite simply, A for offering it – I hope you guys are all going yourselves too. Then you can blogshare the love with people like me who can’t enter. You rock! And this doesn’t count as ass kissing cos I’m not entering. Yep.
I guess I’m pretty much amazing because I started a music zine at my school this semester. I would love the tics because my friend and I have always wanted to go to a music fest, but have never been able to.
I’m PMA for being as honest as I am about being PMA. I’m PMA because I’m sort of not a big deal, but should be. I’m PMA because no matter how you listen to my Ipod, you’re listening to nothing but greatness. I’m PMA because I usually don’t boast about how amazing I am, but, for music I make an exception.

I’m PMA because I think the most telling question to ask someone is “If you had to be half-person, half-hot dog, divided at the waste, which half would be which and why?”
I am bottom half-hot dog, because I’d still like to be able to think, use my arms and eat, but I understand the argument for walking and getting down.
I deserve these because I’m getting laid off in June and this would be a wonderful thing to look forward to this summer. And I had fun at last year’s APW.
