Through December 31, 2010, specially marked packs(1) of STRIDE gum are giving consumers the chance to win(2) a grand prize of free tickets and travel to New York and Los Angeles to see SHIFT-sponsored private concerts featuring the bands Panic! At the Disco and Cobra Starship. Consumers with packs containing the "Holy Shift, You're a winner!" instant-win message will be awarded one of the 100 grand prizes.
Grand prize winners and a guest will kick off their concert experience with Cobra Starship in New York City on March 21. Their exciting bicoastal adventure will conclude after a cross-country trip to a live Panic! At The Disco concert in Los Angeles on March 22.
"STRIDE, Panic! At the Disco, and Cobra Starship share a connection within their fan base, and this bicoastal, private concert event offers an unexpected and exciting edge that's unique to STRIDE," said Gary Osifchin, Marketing Director, STRIDE. "This dual concert experience also represents the Stride SHIFT unique flavor changing technology, and is exemplified through different yet equally thrilling bicoastal concerts."
Cobra Starship is an American pop punk/synthpop band from New York City. The four member band pairs dance breakdowns with cool beats and debuted their first album in 2006. Their third album, Hot Mess, was released in 2009.
"We thought the Stride SHIFT show was cool because it's not something you get an opportunity to do all the time and our fans would get to see us in a unique setting," said Ryland Blackinton, guitarist/keyboard player of Cobra Starship. "Plus, I think all the Stride commercials are funny and it's nice to work with people who have a good sense of humor."
Panic! At the Disco is an alternative rock/baroque pop band from Las Vegas, Nevada. Their debut album shot to lucky number 13 on the charts selling more than 2.2 million copies worldwide. The band's latest album, Pretty Odd, debuted at number two. "We've always tried to do things people don't expect with our music and live show, just like Stride SHIFT is a changing and evolving gum," said Brendon Urie, Panic's vocalist. "Plus any opportunity to interact with our fans is always fun, so it'll be cool to hang with them as part of such a unique promotion."
In addition to participating in this concert experience, Panic! At the Disco also will be interacting with fans via the Stride SHIFT Concert tab, found at http://www.facebook.com/stride-gum. The band will be answering a few select questions via video reply weekly starting after Thanksgiving. To view the Stride SHIFT Concert tab, users can visit STRIDE's Facebook page and click "like".

Hey, folks! Ваш блудный админ вернулся, правда со слегка измененным именем :)
Я от лица администрации приношу свои извинения за то, что мы, и в частности я, так долго не появлялись на сообществе. И хочу поблагодарить
benzedrine за поддержания информативности сообщества. Я думаю, что она за свои старания заслуживает звания модератора :)Тем не менее, я пришла со своими печеньками.
Сразу хочу сказать, я не претендую на звание мисс-конгениальность или крутой фотошопер года, просто я обожаю такие вот вещи. Типа, все как у взрослых :D А именно это два постера к моему фанфику и дальше, перейдя по ссылке на мое сообщество,вы сможете найти помимо фулсайза, еще и синопсис на первую главу :)

[...] What are you listening to instead? Panic at the Disco is a very original band. And the White Stripes are very original. Everyone else I can think of is an off-shoot of somebody else. First time I heard Jane’s Addiction, I thought "what was that?" "Teenagers" by My Chemical romance - that’s a great record right there. [...]
