Calling all music fans!
Wanna do some good today? Help a fellow fan have the ultimate fan experience.

Think of your favorite band. Like, your absolute, ultimate favorite band. The band you’ve seen in concert five times, the band whose T-shirt you live in, the band whose music you could not live without.

Now, what if you could meet that band? And not just meet them, but hang out with them. And not only meet them and hang out with them, but videotape footage of their latest concert.

It’d be pretty sweet, right? The ultimate fan experience maybe?

For one of my fellow News-Press staffers, this ultimate experience is almost a reality. Ricky Gipson, our internet content editor, is one of four finalist in P.O.D.’s All Access Warrior Pass contest. If he wins, he’ll get an all-expense paid trip to San Diego where he’ll spend a week with the band and be the VJ for the final show of their Hard Rock Tour.

Now, here’s where you come in. The contestant whose video gets the most votes wins. So go vote here. And help Ricky win that contest. Because he’s a cool guy. And when you watch his video entry, you can tell he’s a genuine fan, he’s sincere, he loves the band and their message.

So vote for Ricky. You can do that here. You can vote as many times as you want, but voting ends TODAY, so there’s not much time. Come on, help a fellow fan live out his band dream. Because you know what it’s like to love a band. Because you know what it’s like to have a band’s music change your life.

By the way, you can vote for Ricky here.
