Just today, I got 2 similar "free ticket" offers from bands on my friend list. Sadly, both bands are currently performing in Europe, so tickets to Vegas would be totally useless.

Good News: Al has now officially joined the ranks of people who other people want to pretend to be. Bad News: Those pretenders can hurt the uninformed people's view of Al if they don't realize that it isn't really Al. Confusing, huh? This is good news and bad news.
