Cue weekly mantra: As we’ve pointed out over the past few weeks (rather broken record-like) one of the happy coincidences of being The Official Blog for Record Store Day 2011 is that we’re afforded the opportunity to underscore one of our main themes—namely that vinyl is a contemporary medium which is thriving and more vital than it has been in some time—DJ’s, purists, and collectors notwithstanding.
So, to that end, we’re spending the next eleven weeks straight putting records into the hands of TVD readers as we count down to April 16, 2011—Record Store Day. We’ll have a giveaway for you each and every Tuesday as well as sporadic surprises throughout the forthcoming weeks.
Up for week number six: Bright Eyes’ brand new The People’s Key on mega-weight 180-gram vinyl which also includes a CD of the release. (I’m guessing to use as a coaster…?) Regardless, they’re bundled together waiting to be mailed directly to you in exchange for your thoughtful comment below.
The rules can’t be any easier to enter our Eleven Weeks of Record Store Day Vinyl Giveaways: simply leave us a comment in the comments section to the contest letting us know why you deserve to win that particular LP. Be creative, funny, incisive—whatever it takes to grab our attention.
Winners of our Tuesday giveaways will be notified upon the launch of the next giveaway and must have a mailing address within the US and Canada.
