Congrats to llynnowens.

 

And I'll add that she won not because the photo has a cute kid in it, but because it tells a story, of course. I think a lot of us can relate to the story, too. It's a picture you want to go back to and re-check out.

 

Well done and great photo.

Thanks! My alternate prize is a pair of shoes (I picked a pair for the photo's wee model) and a signed poster. I hope the actual ACL attendee is around these parts so I can read all about it and live vicariously through them. :yes

Congrats to Loretta and Jamila and all the finalists! Lots of lovely pics. :yes

 

And I'd like to hear more about the shoes, please. :monkey

Ok! Sorry for bringing the thread back from the dead but I couldn't show off my entry until now.

This is me and my brother outside of the Ontario College of Art right before we are off to see Wilco at Massey Hall in Toronto.

that's a really awesome shirt!

 

man i hope my poster is in the mailbox when i get home.

did they ship it in a tube or a box?

 

EDIT- My poster was on the front porch. It was in this large flat box, that was sort of bent (silly UPS men... :shifty) so I dragged it inside and opened it carefully. I was really excited, and for a second I am pretty sure I reverted back to being 8-years-old on Christmas morning. Once I peeled away the tape and got the box open a mountain of Wilco stuff layed there! I couldn't believe the stickers, and postcards, and the button, the neckard thingy that says AGIB, the posters, the shirt, a magnet, and the coolest thing was a guitar pick hidden in a corner where the poster was held down that had a tiny Jeff signature on the back. Oh my gosh! I nearly crapped my pants.

 

I can't believe Wilcoworld gave us all that stuff! It just reaffirms what we all know-- that Wilco is truly the best band on the planet right now. :worship :wub :worship

Sarah C, I was so excited when I heard about your guitar pick and thought maybe there had been one planted in my prize box which I had missed. I have just been out to the recycle bin and there was something! - A COCKROACH!

Did you peel back the tape/cardboard that was securing the poster in the box? It could be hiding there... :hmm

 

Which photo was yours rock pools? Mine was the one with the fish and the otter characters wearing Wilco shirts

Uh, no. If they were THE greatest they would have given all of us that stuff. I for one am still waiting for mine. I say they are merely 7th or 8th.

(That is really cool Sarah. Thank you for not actually crapping your pants.)
