People’s Choice Contest, Build Your Own Fantasy Band win a CD
Metal Martyr’s first contest will be a people choice contest. This will be a comment contest meaning to enter into the contest you will need to comment at this post. Some specifics are involved in the comments in order to be qualified for the drawing in two weeks. Here is how its going to work:
I’m going to Build my own fantasy band. Sort of like the whole fantasy sports teams that a lot of people do online. You can pick up to 6 band members but no less than 4. A drummer, bass player, lead guitar, rhythm guitar, vocalist, and lastly an optional member such as a keyboard or additional guitar player. Your vocalist can be a rhythm guitar or bass player as well but they have to be this combo in real life. They have to be real musicians, any musician from any music era/genre dead or alive, and when you are finished you can name your band. Naming your band is optional because cool band names are hard to come by and I’d hate to see someone post a cool band name and someone else steal it for their own real band. Get your creative juices flowing and don’t hold back.
In two weeks I will put all the names of the people that comment into a hat, bowl or whatever and draw 1 winner. The winner will receive their choice of any CD they want that is $25.00 or less from amazon.com . This will be a U.S. resident only contest due to shipping costs and arrangements. When the winner is announced and contacted they will then let me know what CD they want by going to amazon.com and sending me the link of the CD they want that way there is no confusion or complaints. You must comment in this post. Multiple comments by a single person will not increase chances of winning, one entry per person. If the winner e-mails me the link and they want a Justin Timberlake CD they will automatically be disqualified and banned from Metalmartyr.com for life! I don’t care if you say it’s for your sister, those are the rules.
Ok, so here is my fantasy band:
Vocals: Phil Anselmo
Rhythm Guitar: Jeff Hanneman
Lead: Dimebag
Bass: Cliff Burton
Drums: Joey Jordison (this was a tough one, between Joey and Dave Lombardo)
Well, thats my “super group”. Lets see what you have and maybe you can get that CD that you’ve wanted for awhile and haven’t had the spare change for.

Izzy rocks, he should win just for being such a punk. I don’t want to play but did want to say that I LOVE this idea. It’s really a great one. I would have told you so at the forums but I’ve been locked out, can’t get in, can’t comment, and Brian’s on vacation so ah well. But very nice.

got about another week to go, perhaps you have more time to make up your mind between the new Nelly Furtado or Prince’s new one that he was trying to desperately to give away.

Thats cool. I think I will do this type of contest again in February, and this time I think I will judge it instead of making it a drawing type contest.
