Live Aid Giveaway Contest on DVDMon.com
Just a note that I just started a DVD Giveaway contest on my DVDMon.com site:
For many Baby Boomers, Woodstock was a defining moment in their lives, musically and otherwise. For gen-X’ers like myself Live Aid was not quite that defining, but it was still one of the most memorable musical events of my teen years. Warner Strategic Marketing recently came out with a 4-DVD set of this mammoth 1985 concert containing over 10 hours of live music. As luck would have it, we happen to have 3 copies of this DVD set to give away! That’s right. All you have to do is write a small story about how you remember the event in your own life. If you were too young to remember it yourself, ask an older sibling, an aunt, uncle, or friend. We’ll review the answers and post the 3 winning ones here. This contest starts today, January 12, 2005, and wraps up at 11:59:59 PM EST on Sunday, January 16, 2005. Unfortunately, we can only afford to pay for domestic shipping, so we will have to limit the contest to those who want their dvd’s shipped to addresses in the United States. We’ll announce the winners as soon as we can, hopefully by Monday. Good luck! Email your stories to us at levi@dvdmon.com [Actually if folks want to leave their entries here as comments, that would be cool too!] . More about the dvd set can be found here.
UPDATE: Well, it looks like my timeframe was a bit too short, or people have gotten tired of contests. I've only gotten a couple of entries so far. To make things a bit more fair, I've decided to make the contest a bit more open-ended. I will keep this open until I get 7 more entries, for a total of nine, which means that each entry will have a 1 in 3 chance of winning. Pretty good odds for writing a paragraph or two, if you ask me! Anyway, here's a direct link to the page with the contest as I will be putting up new news on the site which will push it off the front page: http://www.dvdmon.com/individual.asp?keyNewsID=189
