How it works

Three steps. Two ways to win.

Paul's reading entries on the air, so make it good. Make it loud. Make it something you'd see on a 1987 tour poster.

  1. Name the band

    One entry per person. Keep it clean enough for FCC-licensed radio — Paul has to say it out loud.

  2. Paul picks his favorite

    He'll read the finalists on the air, pick his top 3, and choose the winners himself on September 21, 2026.

  3. Winner gets $1,000 off. Top 3 get Wild tickets.

    "The $1,000 applies to any HRI treatment — hair transplant, PRP, laser therapy, SMP, or Dermal Lens. All three top entries also get a pair of tickets to upcoming Minnesota Wild game. We'll call you either way.
