Ledgie Contest
 

CURRENT ROUND: ROUND 2
http://ledge.fleetwoodmac.net/showpo...&postcount=105

Well, sadly I can't change a thread title and I would like as many as are interested to be aware of this, so I'm starting a new thread.

THE CONTEST:

First you should know what the prizes are (pics will be uploaded in the next couple days)
In order from least cool to coolest:

(2) Warner Brothers Promotional photos of The Dance Era. One is the picture we're all familiar with that was in the Rollingstone article. The other I haven't
seen too ften, but they're both common.

(4) Collectible Backstage Passes. Authentic backstage passes: two from the Wild Heart tour, one from the Rock A Little Tour, and one from the Mirage tour.

(1) Tusk sticker; A new york radiostation handed these out to promote the Fleetwood Mac Concert at Madison Square Garden on November 15, 16 1979.

(1) Stevie Nicks HBO promo poster. I ended up with three of these, sold one on Enchanted and have now decided to give the other away to a deserving Ledgie.

(1) Fleetwood Mac 1997 promo display - This is The Dance Pop-up that also functioned as the press kit. Complete with the band facts and dates card.

(1) a 6 page "BAM" reprint & a 4 page "Rolling Stone" reprint. These items are from the Bella Donna press kit. Literally you'd just be missing the pictures to have a complete Bella Donna Press Kit. Both articles contain photos and a really cool cover. The Bam article is Stevie Nicks: The Fleetwood Mac Siren Finds Solo Stardom by Blair Jackson. The Rolling Stone Article is Stevie Nicks' Magic Act by Timothy White. Both have cool tidbits in them and have the Modern Records logo on the back and bottom of each page (they did this for the press kit only)

and Lastly, my favorite: (1) 1979 Peter Beard Tusk Lithograph. To find out more, see EnchantedSLN post on this page http://burnish.net/fleetwoodmac/inde...opic=100&st=15. The images are from the Tusk picture sleeves (albeit with a few extras thrown in) and the bottom of the lithograph has some lyrics from Tusk (all the songs are represented at least once) strewn about on tiny slips of paper. Again I've had three of these in my day so I'm sure the Burnish page is inaccurate about value and how many were made, but it's still a cool collectible and can be hung pretty much anywhere since it isn't overtly Fleetwood Mac (in case you have roommates that would complain about such a thing :( )

Ideally I would give the prize pack to someone in Vegas, but seeing as how a bunch of ledgies can't go, I will also be willing to mail stuff. I have three ideas as to what the contest should be dependent on how many folks would be interested in playing. If you think you have even a slight interest shoot me an e-mail ([email protected], please put "contest" in the subject line) or respond in this thread now that it is seperate from the seating chart and I'll decide how it's going to be played tomorrow night. The contest will likely be trivia or photo releated and is open to everyone, brand new ledgies and up.

Michael.

Laura

Is it open to people overseas?

Pip

fun stuff
 

I am so game. I will probably lose to all the ledgies who stay on the Ledge all the time, Amber, but I am up for the challenge. I guess if you do trivia, you will have a time you are posting the question?
Crap Christine lyrics will KILL me.

Hey all!

I'm thinking about the overseas question. I've never mailed something overseas so if you shoot me a PM about how that works I'll make a decision. I'm open to it, but I don't want to have to go pay a fortune on customs stuff.

I'm leaning towards running all three contests as individual rounds with one round elimination. For the trivia round, a set of questions will be posted. All who decide to participate would have five days to find the answers and e-mail them (NOT POST) to me. This should allow everyone time to respond and get them right (sort of how the old Mac jeapardy used to run). The second round would then be posted along with the folks that survived elimination. This method would seem to make it a level playing field for those always on the ledge, those will dialup, those who are away, etc.

I'm up for a challenge. Let's play. :thumbsup:

This game is mine for the takin'.


Call it. I already won. :D

Wow. I want this so much it hurts :(
What do we have to do?

Oh, hell no. I was excited, but now I'm not as much, cause I don't know half as much about Mac as most people here. :( That's what I get for not being obsessive enough....

Yeah, unless David decides to play.... :shocked: :)

I'm sure i'll get totally schooled but i'm gamed! :nod:

Well... With over 11,000 posts in under a year... I think you are well on your way... :laugh:

Yes, yes, more jokes about how much I've posted. I still don't know all about the Mac. I feel I can never really catch up with all the knowledge and material others have. The collect stuff people. which are most of the people here. Luckily, it doesn't bother me much. I would like a nice little piece of memorabilia, though, I don't have anything like that. :) Maybe I'll get one right before someone else.... :p

I know lots compared to my friends, but nothing compared to people here, but I shall play anyway :D
