No Doubt Concert Ticket Giveaway!

I should win the tickets because I feel as though I am one of No Doubt’s very TRUE fans. Although I was a little young when No Doubt first came out with their self titled album and began creating a buzz, I have definitely caught up on their humble beginnings and feel like I’ve been a fan since the release of the Trapped in a Box video to Stand and Deliver on Gossip Girl. I’m from New Jersey but I have traveled all the way out to Anaheim, CA just to visit the old band house that is featured in the Just a Girl video (surprisingly located on Beacon Ave. NOT Beacon St.). I’ve also stood in the garage where the opening of the Sunday Morning video takes place, just a couple blocks away. For this tour alone, I’ve waited 8 hours in the rain to see No Doubt on the Today Show, 6 hours (half of which was in the rain) to see them in Camden and was nearly killed by the various mosh pits and crowd surfers at the Bamboozle to see them. I am a TRUE FAN. I was too young to attend any of their prior tours; well, at least my parents thought I was. And now that I am finally mobile, I’m catching up!! Sadly, like most college students, I don’t have a ton of money to spend, and couldn’t afford to buy any more tickets for shows. This contest means so much more to me than being allowed to hear an awesome band play one more time before they head off into the studio; being able to meet the band would NO DOUBT be the highlight of my 20 years of life.

It would be incredible to go. a DREAM!!

Entering once more for good measure. I can’t even begin to describe how much this opportunity would mean to me. The idea of standing face-to-face with Gwen and the boys in just under 2 weeks is beyond imaginable… and would be a dream come true. Best of luck to everyone who has entered!

I was an instant No Doubt fan since the fall of 1995 when I first saw “Just a Girl” as an MTV Buzz Clip while hanging out with friends late one night. I knew from that moment that No Doubt was going to be a huge influence on my life. I was a junior in high school, and had just recently come out to my folks. It was an awkward time to say the least. I wasn’t the most popular kid in school, and just had a lot of “finding myself” to do. Tragic Kingdom became the soundtrack of my life. It was the first time music had moved me to such a state of empowerment. Watching four very confident individuals get out there and just dare to be different was something that I aspired to. It wasn’t until I got the chance to see No Doubt live that I really starting coming into my own. I formed an instant connection to not only the music, but also the strength that Gwen, Tom, Tony, and Adrian exuded while rocking out on stage. I took a little piece of that strength home with me that night.

As the months progressed, I found myself more comfortable with who I was, more open to stepping outside the boundaries of what people expected me to be, and I really started becoming an individual. In turn, I found others being more comfortable around me… which led me to forming a really tight, protective, and loving circle of friends. I honestly can’t say that I would have gotten there without these 4 amazing people. As the years progressed and No Doubt took their music in different directions, I loyally stood by them. I found that the music tended to shape my later years, just as much as it did the earlier years.

I’ve gotten the opportunity to see No Doubt live many times over the years, but would trade all the memories for the opportunity to thank each member personally for breaking me out of my shell and allowing me to be comfortable with the person I was destined to become. A now 31 year old No Doubt fan through and through, you are bound to find me jamming along to their infectious tunes until I’m old and gray. Thank you Just Jared, for offering the opportunity to make someone very happy!

I love ND and would love the chance to get and meet them. After five years of being apart I’m so excited they have reunited on this summer tour. It is my dream to meet No Doubt and hopefully my wish can come true.
Thanks.
