Concert.tv Promos Back San Francisco Music Fest

Video-on-demand service Concert.tv will run ads in August prompting viewers to send text messages in hopes of winning tickets to the Outside Lands Music & Arts Festival in San Francisco's Golden Gate Park Aug. 28-30.

Ads will prompt those watching to send a text message with the words "Outside Lands" to 70734 which in turn will enter them into a drawing for a three-day pass. A total of three pairs of tickets will be given away by Aug. 21.

Another Planet Entertainment, the largest independent promoter in the Bay Area, and Superfly Productions, co-creators of Bonnaroo, are teaming with Concert.tv on the promotional campaign.
