DOWNTOWN LOS ANGELES — Pop sensation Matthew Sweet and Bangles vocalist Susanna Hoffs visit the GRAMMY Museum on Tuesday, July 21, to discuss and perform selections from their newest project, "Under The Covers Vol. 2."

Tickets for the event, part of the museum's series The Drop, are on-sale now, but we've got five pairs for some lucky blogdowntown readers.

The pair released "Under The Covers Vol. 1," their first collaboration, in 2006. The followup release comes out on Tuesday, the day of the GRAMMY Museum event. The albums feature covers of songs from the 1960's and 1970's.

Want to see the show? Just leave a comment letting us know why you should win, and make sure to include contact information (either by including an email address or logging in via Facebook). Entries will close Friday, July 17, at 4pm.

I checked out the Drop with Rhett Miller and it was a really cool setup. I am a huge fan of Under the Covers vol. 1 and I can't wait to hear the next installment. Also, I think with their own work, they have written some of the most perfect pop songs ever.

I love Matthew Sweet (100% Fun is one of the greatest pop albums ever) and I'm curious about his collaboration with Susanna Hoffs and to check out the Grammy Museum - this sounds like a fun event. Plus, my boyfriend and I will be celebrating his birthday earlier that same evening at Trader Vics - so we'll be right there! :)

Ahhh, the return of "Sid & Susie"....loved Volume 1. It's still in heavy rotation. Plus, who can forget their little side collab with Mike Myers in Austin Powers 1....a little "Ming Tea" anyone?!

Their respective sounds bring back the wonders of my college days of the 80s. I would loooove to see these guys live!

I want to see Susanna Hoffs because I didn't win tickets to Michael Jackson's funeral and she looks just like Michael when he was in his "white" phase.
