Big Post Thursday
So many things to talk about in one post. It might be our longest one yet. First up, our contests page has been update with a list of winners for the Nirvana & Louis XIV Giveaways. Congrats to those who won. We'll have two new contests tomorrow so stay tuned.
Next we have The White Stripes. It's incredible that we haven't had coverage on them until now. Insound.com is having a special promotion when you pre-order Get Behind Me Satan. Use the coupon code: orchid15 when checking out (expires on 06.07.05) and the first 100 orders will receive a free White Stripes 7-inch. Pre-order the album here. Watch the video of Blue Orchid (QT) and download a few mp3's over at Daily Refill.
We just received word that Nikeid's Time Square billboard will have it's last day tomorrow. Nike is hosting a NIKE FREE FOR ALL from 1pm - 5pm where every Nike Free Shoe (Free is the name of a particular shoe style) created at Times Square will be free to the consumer who custom designs it.
As it has been done throughout the campaign, consumers dial the number noted on the board and are prompted to create their shoe. Five people can be waiting on hold (before a busy sign is received). Then once the consumer designs their FREE kick, they will receive a text message to their cell phone - the same as what's been done before but this time with a single use comp code where they can place their Nike FREE shoe order. You will have to be in Time Square to be able to participate. View the image of the billboard.
Don't forget to vote for the Aeki shoe! Vote every day. If we win, we will be giving out 50 Aekis to readers like you. We also will receive gift certificates ($100 each) that we will also be giving out on this site. Show your support and vote for Aeki. Vote at work. Vote at home. Just Vote!
Tonight there will be a Gorillaz/Jamie Hewlett toy signing tonight at the Kidrobot store (7PM). Check out the flyer. There will be free giveaways and free beer.
Also tonight, Music For Robots release party for the Music For Robots: Vol. 1 CD will take place at the Knitting Factory. Live performances from:
