UPDATE:  The winner of this contest has been selected and notified!  Thanks to everyone that participated! 

We’re excited to announce the latest secret show from Southwest’s partner The Artists Den!  Next Wednesday, Feb. 9, Robert Plant will rock a very intimate concert in Nashville for some very lucky fans.
 
As you all know, Southwest has a Whole Lotta LUV for our Customers and online fans and that’s why we want to send one lucky winner and a guest to this very exclusive concert!  For a taste of how awesome these events are visit www.theartistsden.com.

The Artists Den has an amazing knack for finding one-of-a-kind locations for these secret shows.  Robert Plant, the “Golden God,” will be performing at a famous location  in Nashville. Lucky for all of you, Southwest has a backstage pass to the show and wants to get you in on it.

 
To win a trip to this amazing gig, we’re asking all you fans out there to create a caption for this photo which is from a past Artists Den concert and has a connection with this show. You can post your caption in the comments section below (make sure you are a registered blog user so we can email you if you win!), or you can tweet us your caption and use the hashtag #WholeLottaLUV. All blog comments must be approved by a moderator, so don't get discouraged if your comment doesn't show up right away.

So, ready, set, caption.  We can’t promise you that you’ll find the stairway to heaven, but we do promise the winner that you’ll have “Kashmir” to keep you warm and you’ll get the chance to see a little “angel dance”!

Be sure to read the rules below for the judging criteria.  The winner will be notified by Monday 2/7/2011 by 6:30 pm CST.

"And our time is flying, see the candle burning low, Is the new world rising, from the shambles of the old?" That line from "The Rover" seems kind of appropriate for Plant's career path the last few years.
