Win tickets to see David Byrne and Cory in Toronto, Sept 19

Yesterday, I reviewed the new David Byrne book, How Music Works and mentioned that I'd be interviewing Byrne about it live on stage in Toronto on Sept 19, as part of the Harbourfront International Festival of Authors.

The IFA folks have made a pair of tickets for the event available to Boing Boing readers. To win, answer the following question:

What is David Byrne's favourite mode of transportation?

And send us your answer by midnight eastern on September 16 to authorsmedia@harbourfrontcentre.com with the subject line "BYRNE TIX." One winner will be notified September 17.

The event is called "David Byrne and Cory Doctorow: Wassup Internet?!—Music in the Digital Landscape," and it'll be held at 7:30pm on Sept 19 at the Fleck Dance Theatre, 207 Queens Quay West.

I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.

I believe Cory just carries him around on his back.

  What could possibly go wrong with that?

I can’t find on Google any pictures of DB on any vehicle….so I can safely infer that he doesn’t move at all. No, wait, 1 picture of him on a bicycle! No, two of them. bicycle, definitely bicycle. Unless he walks only.
