Win A Copy of Less Than Jake’s Upcoming CD!
IMPORTANT:
I HAVE DELETED SEVERAL COMMENTS BECAUSE OF FAILURE TO FOLLOW ENTRY REQUIREMENTS. PLEASE READ THIS ENTIRE POST BEFORE ENTERING THE CONTEST! IF YOU DON’T, YOU RISK YOUR ENTRY NOT BEING COUNTED. THANK YOU.
Earlier this week, I promised there would be contest information on Friday. Well, it’s Friday folks – and News In Punk’s FIRST EVER CONTEST! (Yes, I capitalized the words for effect.)
I’ve got a couple of rad prizes to give away, courtesy of Sleep It Off Records. One lucky winner will receive a copy of Less Than Jake’s forthcoming CD, GNV VLA as well as a 12″ LTJ bobblehead. The bobblehead apparently also functions as a bank, so it’s a collectors item AND multi-purpose.
(You could win these!!!)
The contest will run from Friday, June 6th until July 6th (that’s a whole month, folks.) In order to enter, leave a comment on this post telling me about one of your all-time favorite songs and why it has a special place in your heart. Simple enough, yeah?
At the end of the month, a winner will be randomly selected and the prizes will be shipped out. PLEASE, make sure you leave a valid e-mail address so I can contact you if you win. Good luck, and get to entering!

My all-time favorite song is “Like A Rolling Stone” by Bob Dylan. When I went off to college, I was really homesick. My dad had given me a bunch of his old cassette tapes and one of them had this song on it. As soon as I heard it, I felt so much better about everything. It made me realize that there are worse situations I could be in.
Rocky because it was my wife’s music for her floor exercise routine.
my husband and I love to dance to Unchained Melody
Hurt by Johnny Cash
‘Let it Be’ because I was in 6th grade when it came out and it was the first song I really listened to and connected with.

“I Disappear” from Metallica…….reminds me of a trip to Chicago to meet a couple of girls who my friend met on online
My favorite song is Seize the Day by Avenged Sevenfold. I have learned to live life fully day by day and not sit around waiting for things to happen. Thats one of the main reasons I got married 2 weeks ago after dating him for only 5 weeks. I Seized the Day!
Before my husband and I were married we decided to drive from MA to Florida and we kept playing the song Salvation by Rancid. We had a lot of fun making up our own lyrics and trying to figure out Tim’s famous slurring. So, that’s a favorite song that makes me think of a fun trip.

I love Buffett’s A Pirates Look at 40. As I get closer to 40, I am listening more and more to heavier music and punk music, but this song lets me relax while I take a drink at the beach and wonder what kind of Pirate I would be.
