[size=x-large]LFF'S MUSIC TRIVIA CONTEST!!!![/size]


Hello everyone. So here is the story:

I recently placed an order over at www.dccblowout.com for a couple hi-fi albums which I have wanted. The order was shipped out and I recieved it a few days ago. Within it was my order and two extra CD's. I had not payed for nor ordered these two CD's. I contacted Tom, the owner of dccblowout and offered to ship them back. He refused and told me I could keep them as a gift.

WOW. What a guy.

However, I already own these CD's. So instead of hugging all the sweet music goodness for myself, I decided to share my fortune with two lucky headfiers. Here is the deal:

1) If you are a non-paying member, you MUST answer all the questions correctly.

2) If you are a paying member, you must only answer 10 out of the 11 questions correctly.

3) You must PM me the answer no latter than 12:00 noon on October 6, 2006 to be considered a contestant.

4) If there is more than 2 people who correctly answer all the questions, I will put the names in a hat and my lovely girlfriend will pick the two winners.

5) I will announce the winners shortly thereafter and ship the prizes. (I will cover postage)

6) I will post the correct answers when the contest ends.

7) HAVE FUN!!!

This is a strange way to get some obscure answers, LFF.

I'm sure you will get a boatload of answers in hopes of a CD. Mine will be in you inbox ... sometime.

You can't rely on google though as it will mislead you in a few questions.

Not a strange way - I didn't want easy questions. I want a true music fan to get these discs. So far I have only recieved 2 answers. However, you can try as many times as you want.

Yes - you can resubmit as much as you want but I will only tell you which one are wrong if you have 3 or less wrong answers.

So far we have only TWO winners. Congratulations to those two people. Remember, this contest goes until noon on October 6, 2006 so keep trying.
