As of tomorrow, year one of Vinyl Me, D weirdness is in the books. Was able to send 45 records to new, loving homes. It was fun.
I'm gonna do it again........with a twist.
Last year, I chose 3 winners, and they got the complete haul for the year. This go 'round, I'm changing it up to make it 12 times more fun. I'll pick 3 new winners every month so 36 folks will receive free records over the course of the next 12 months. I ran a poll recently and y'all voted this format the winner at about 2:1.
It's very simple to take part in this whole fiasco - simply like this post. That's it. One like and you're entered for the next 12 months. You can jump in and participate at any time.
Each month I'll pull 3 random winners from the everlasting Wheel Of Names. If you win a free record, your name is removed from the wheel. If you don't win a record, your name stays put for the next month's spin.
The only common thread of the records I'm giving away is I enjoy them, and I feel others may as well. If you want to get a feel for my taste and you didn't follow year one, here's a link...
I'll try my best to send everyone a record they don't already own but can't guarantee it. I'll DM the three winners each month and if you want to send me a Discogs link I'll do my best to make sure you get something new.
If you receive a record you already have or is the most heinous thing to ever make aural contact with your earholes (my taste ain't for everybody), feel free to do with it as you wish. We have a great, giving community here and I'd encourage you to put it in the PIF thread because that good karma will come back to you many times over, but if you'd rather give it to a friend/trade at your local/sell it, it's all good. Once Mr. Postman drops it at your door, it's yours to do with as you please.
My plan is to draw for the next month's record by the 15th of the preceding month. That means I'll pick October's winners around 9-15. Just like last year, I'll post one cryptic clue each month.
Post any questions. Enjoy the ride, amigos.

Vinyl Me, D - A Free Record Club
So....I'm sitting here in a little euphoric, IPA haze listening to records (I refer to this particular night of the week as "every night") and was thinking about this cool thing @kickerofelves did on the old forum - he created his own record club for 3 subscribers.....all on his dime. No cost...
