Bis bald, Cologne: the Electronic Beats Festival is coming, and you could go for free!

Oh my god, we can’t wait. This week, Electronic Beats is touching down in Cologne to deliver some of our favorite tunes straight to the people. We’re talkin’ Austra, The Kills, The Hundred in The Hands, and Miike Snow, plus an opening set from London-based quintet Citizens! We want you to be there. We really, really do. That’s why we’re giving away two tickets. Take a friend, a lover, an enemy (cool way to bond, pay it forward) or just whatever. The tickets are yours and you are free, just like the tickets.

UPDATE: We are very sorry to announce that The Kills are unable to perform at this Thursday’s Electronic Beats Festival Cologne 2012 due to sickness (all other bands will be playing though). Please find all information and a statement by The Kills here – we apologize for any inconvenience & hope to see you at the festival nevertheless.

Otherwise, tickets are still on sale for only 18 bucks. That’s pretty damn cheap in any economy, and for a night of sweaty fun it’s certainly worthwhile. We’re waiting…
