Revolver Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 This is the email I got:Hi Eli,Because the original winner of the contest is unable to attend the concert, we went straight to Bumblefoot to make sure he was OK that we sent someone else before actually informing our second choice. In Bumblefoot's own words, they forefitted their prize by going on Twitter saying that couldn't go.Congratulations. You have now won the contest. You were originally selected second in the competition - it's always good to select two in case the winner doesn't work out - but we needed to wait for confirmation from Bumblefoot.Your original email said you were interested in Montreal. Is this correct?Additionally, I would love to have two pages in the upcoming magazine for you to tell your story and show a couple photos from your trip. The story should be about 1,200 words and the photos need to be at least 5 megapixels.Congratulations. We will be in touch with more shortly.Best,Dan SavoiePresident / EditorRockStar Weeklywww.rockstarweekly.comBumble emailed me right after and told me congrats! posted about this in the "Win Backstage Passes"-thread but just wanted people to see that it was luckily one of us who won, and for those who read my story in that thread and see what I'm going through to see them live.. this is just.. the greatest thing ever!and thanks to everyone who's been showing support and hoping I'd survive my trip hahahsee you guys in Canada Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
