We Have a Winner!

Second-Ever CoolDad Music Comment Contest

Thanks to everyone who commented or who just stopped by to have a look around the place. There can only be one winner, though, and that winner is Josh. I'll be sending Josh my extra copy of the Record Store Day 2012 Smugglers Way flexi-zine put out by Domino Records.

Congratulations, Josh!

Thank you to everyone who helped get the Facebook page to 100 Likes; and, once again, thank you to all of the commenters. I really enjoy hearing from and interacting with everyone, which is really the point of this. I may try to come up with a different contest format for the next time. Definitely open to ideas.

Comment Contest for Domino Records Smugglers Way Flexi-zine

Comment for a Chance to Win

A big thanks to everyone who liked or got their friends to like the CoolDad Music page on Facebook. As I said I would do all along, now that the page has reached the arbitrary number of 100 likes, I'm holding a contest for my extra, unopened copy of Domino Records' 2012 Record Store Day exclusive Smugglers Way flexi-zine.

Smugglers Way is extremely cool, and a year ago I became obsessed with acquiring it. So obsessed, in fact, that I ended up with two. It contains flexi-singles (square, floppy, acetate records that play on your turntable) from Dirty Projectors, Real Estate, Villagers, John Maus, and Cass McCombs in a variety of colors. The discs come packaged in a 24-page magazine that contains writing from Alex Bleeker of Real Estate and Laura Marling, Photography by Jana Hunter of Lower Dens, an original score by Owen Pallett, and a bunch of other illustrations, prose, and poetry from other Domino / Ribbon Music artists.

The rules are simple: Comment on this very post between now and Sunday, April 14th. I will randomly select a commenter who will be crowned the winner of The Second-Ever CoolDad Music Comment Contest and send them the prize. If you want a real chance to win, I'd advise against commenting anonymously.

That's it. Thanks again and good luck.

I look forward to hearing from you.
