I try to see Clutch every time they play in my area, I’ve yet to see them perform “10001110101” live but I feel like the more times I try, the better chances I have. So, I hope to see you there. But how you ask? Without tickets? Well, let us cover those for you. We are giving away two tickets to Clutch’s Book of Bad Decisions show at El Rey with support from none other than Sevendust.
