All concerts are free and open to the public but admission is limited. The concert series will utilize text messaging to notify fans of concert information and to grant admission to the events.
Music fans can improve their chances for entry by registering. Fans can register to "Get in and Win" by sending a text message to "FLASH" (35274) with their city's code, which will allow them to receive concert information on their mobile phone.

"Wireless is of course for people on the go. But more and more, it's become a great way for music lovers to be in the know," said Cingular Wireless Executive Director David Garver via a statement.
