Music We Have A Winner!

I thought it would take a little longer than it did—I guess I underestimated this town’s knowledge (or Googling ability) of musicians and their respective faiths—but we have our two winners of the “Relgious Who’s Who” contest. Congratulations go out to Nathan Winters and Daniel Flessas (who, according, to our office headmaster Brad Büchner, “was surprised he’d won, given the fact that he is in Boston right now and didn’t even know about the contest. Apparently someone filled it out for him. How nice!”), they take home their choice of a $50 Music Millennium gift certificate or a $50 Jackpot Records gift certificate, plus a Gideon bible stolen from the Unicorn Inn.*

Thanks to all those who entered, and congrats to the gentlemen who won.

* I have a confession to make. The bible prize was a lie. The only thing that scares me more than a (stolen) bible, is lifting one from that motel. It’s scary. Sorry, I lied, but the gift certificates are very real. Nothing scary about those.
