All throughout Record Store Day, we’ll be giving away some Modern Vinyl slipmats. Fifteen will be given away in all, but to win, you’ll have to keep your eye on this page throughout the day. At random times, we’ll be posting trivia questions, which relate to records. Whoever answers those questions first in the comments, wins a slipmat. It’s that simple! You can only win one slipmat.
The first question will come shortly after midnight, with the remaining chances to win coming at random times throughout the day. All the questions will appear in this article.
Good luck!
Time to start the giveaways! Just a few things first. If your comment doesn’t show up immediately, don’t worry. Some have to go through approval but it won’t affect your contest standing. Second, if you’re an international winner, I’m taking donations toward shipping, but no pressure! Good luck to everyone, first correct answer wins!
