In a Nutshell

Two internationally celebrated Canadian acts co-headline on their cross-country tour, packing arenas with undiluted rock 'n' roll hits

The Fine Print

A band’s live performance often deepens one’s appreciation for the musicians themselves, especially the drummer’s 20-minute bottle-feeding of a kitten. Strengthen your musical bond with this GrouponLive deal to see Jingle Bell Rock 2012 with Theory of a Deadman and Big Wreck at Queen Elizabeth Theatre. For $26, you get one G-Pass for rear-orchestra, mezzanine, or balcony seating on Tuesday, December 18, at 8 p.m. (up to a $51 value, including all fees). Doors open at 7 p.m. Because the ticket is a G-Pass, Groupon customers can use it to enter the venue directly; they will not need to redeem their Groupon at will call.

Two lauded Canadian hard-rock bands—Theory of a Deadman and Big Wreck—reward their loyal fans during their cross-country winter tour, sharing headlining duties as they take over each arena’s sprawling stage. Vancouver heroes Theory of a Deadman return to the Great White North in an exertive panorama of stadium-sized riffs and hard-rocking party anthems. Like the letter E at an optometrist’s office, the band has grown accustomed to the top of the charts, with mainstream rock hits such as “Lowlife” and “Bad Girlfriend” and the life-affirming sing-along “Hate My Life.” Stuffing kevlar crunch, post-grunge, and rockabilly into its sonic calzone, Theory of a Deadman dazzles fans with seasoned classics and newborn cuts from its latest smash The Truth Is…. After an amiable breakup in 2002 in which the band members vowed to still hang out without it being weird, Big Wreck reconvened to tour in 2010 and released its latest album, Albatross, earlier this year. The title track recalls latter-day Soundgarden with its mournful, light-bending soloing and emotional stomp. Lead singer Ian Thornley, who embarked on his own solo career during Big Wreck’s hiatus, brings back his gravelly tenor to songs such as “Control,” “Ladylike,” and “Knee Deep” as the band undulates between cranked-up riffs and pensive jam sessions behind him.

Due to security restrictions, G-Passes must be printed out and presented in person at the event. They cannot be redeemed through Groupon's mobile app.

The Groupon Guide to: Harebrained Schemes

These days it seems like everyone has some kind of harebrained get-rich-quick scheme. Use this handy guide to sort out whether a scheme is destined for failure or straight for the bank:

Scheme: Your neighbor Robert wants you to open a flower shop with him.
Verdict: Harebrained. Robert inherited the flower shop from his father, but in order to keep the shop’s best customer, Mrs. Winifred Downing, you’ll have to pretend that Robert’s father is still alive and court Mrs. Downing in his guise.

Scheme: Your boyfriend, Calvin, wants to get married.
Verdict: Harebrained. Calvin will use the marriage as a contract to bind you together both financially and spiritually. Once you’ve signed the paperwork, Calvin can move into your house and even use your toilet.

Scheme: Your older cousin, Harrison, wants to build an airplane in the front yard and charge local children to take rides in it.
Verdict: Legitimate. This is a business opportunity you won’t want to pass up, just to see every other family in the neighborhood raking in money with their front-yard aeronautics companies. Sign over all of your bank accounts and government bonds to Harrison as soon as possible.

Look at those children having fun in that raft on the roof!
