Just because I’m consulting on something doesn’t mean I can’t talk about it. After all, I wouldn’t assist a company or band if I wasn’t into it (which is a blessing and a curse), so I thought I would share the press release for Summer Music Junkie contest with you folks:
SuperGlued, the community for live music lovers, will kick off the New York Summer Music Junkie Contest on July 11. The contest will be the first of its kind in aggregating and rewarding concertgoers for all the things they do before, during and after shows. Participants will earn points for activities such as Twitter updates, FourSquare checkins, blog reviews and photo and video uploads. Points earned will be tracked on the SuperGlued leaderboard and top scorers will earn weekly prizes throughout the summer, including CMJ Music Marathon badges and tickets to some of the biggest shows of the summer, such as The XX, The Morning Benders and Belle & Sebastian. The biggest music junkie of all wins the grand prize package, which includes a Brooklyn Bowl 365 pass and a guest DJ spot on the Seaport Music Show on East Village Radio. The Brooklyn Bowl 365 pass provides the music junkie and a friend free admission to shows at Brooklyn Bowl for one full year. More details on contest rules and prizes will be released shortly.
Current sponsors and partners for the New York Summer Music Junkie Contest include Brooklyn Bowl, CMJ, Deli Magazine and Seaport Music Festival.
New York music fans can get ready by joining SuperGlued at www.superglued.com. They can then connect to their Facebook, Twitter and FourSquare accounts, and download the free iPhone app to get local show listings and real-time updates. Members can also link to other popular services such as Flickr, YouTube, WordPress, Tumblr and Blogger so that content from shows throughout the summer can easily be shared.
