Title: New ESQ?
Post by: bgas on December 07, 2010, 04:53:45 PM
Is the new ESQ available yet, with Sunflower? 
I thought it was supposed to be out about now, but I have yet to see anyone here raving about it, as ya'll are wont to do. 
Just want to know so I can start looking for it on EBay...

Not out yet. Waiting on a couple phone calls first.

Your email over in the ESQ account suggests you're wanting a subscription, which would be wise.  The Sunflower edition is phenomenal, and will justify the additional copy from eBay.

 In relation to the Sunflower issue, does anyone know if a list of winners has been made public in the Capitol Records 40th Anniversary of Sunflower autograph giveaway?

I doubt Capitol will be releasing the winners names, too many legalities issues for them. 
Besides, I wouldn't want to see my name listed 10 times.... :lol

Hmmm... not to list the names could have more serious implications, as it means the results are unverifiable. Normally the T&Cs state that entry effectively means you agree to being used in post-competition promotions. If the names aren't released, then for all we know the whole thing might have been a con.

A con? No. I personally arranged for all the guys to sign the Sunflower CD and LPs.  Ask yourself, "Why would Capitol Records run a con?" Once I get the 10 names I'll verify that there were 10 winners.  I may be able to congratulate the winners by name only on ESQ's FB page.

Back to topic: The Sunflower issue of ESQ is stellar. Super rare pictures from David Dalton, new articles from Andrew Doe, Peter Reum, Fred Vail and myself.

It sounds really cool, and I want it for sure, but:

I'm happy with that -  acknowledging the names on FB is the same as posting them on prime-time TV!

Thanks for your sterling efforts on fans' behalf David.
