Prior to their headlining concerts last week as part of Civic Tour 2004, Dashboard Confessional awarded Lois Kilburn of Anaheim, California, and Louis Carsia of Peoria, Arizona, each one of 10 customized and autographed Honda Civics that bandmembers personally designed. Kilburn and Carsia were among the lucky contestants who won a chance to randomly select a key that could start the Dashboard Confessional Civic, as well as the opportunity to meet Dashboard Confessional band members, through contests with local radio stations.
Fans nationwide do still have more opportunities to win one of the remaining customized Civics designed by Dashboard Confessional through upcoming media promotions along the Civic Tour, as well as through the "Drive Away With" national sweepstakes at civictour.com. The site also includes commentary from the band, access to special pre-sale information, tour schedule, and an exclusive live Dashboard Confessional track available for download.
Lois Kilburn of Anaheim, California, won one of 10 customized and autographed Dashboard Confessional Honda Civics.
"We are pleased to be entering the fourth year of the Civic Tour with such an exciting lineup and with the addition of the exclusive Dashboard Confessional music download, we are helping to bring fans closer to the band," said Tom Peyton, senior manager of national advertising at American Honda Motor Co., Inc.
Building on the success of the last three years with such A-list artists as blink-182, Everclear, Incubus, Good Charlotte and New Found Glory, Honda continues to support emerging talent with the fourth consecutive Civic Tour. Dashboard Confessional's recent single "Vindicated" will be featured on the upcoming Spiderman 2 soundtrack and currently can be heard on the Shrek 2 soundtrack.
