The 2008 MOFRO
Summer/Fall SwampFunk Foto Contest
PHOTO CONTEST RULES
First and foremost--all pictures must be taken while standing on your right leg (only) and taking the pic with your left hand (only) while alternately rubbing then patting your stomach.
Nahhhhhhhh....
1. Photos must be of JJ Grey & MOFRO, performing live, between the dates of May 17, 2008 through Nov 1, 2008. (Uploading of photos will be allowed up to 11:59 p.m. (EDT) on Nov 5. Any photos not taken between the dates above will be deleted before voting begins.
3. You GOT TO narrow your photo submission to ONE. A page is set up on Flickr for uploading your photos (link below.) Take your time and pick what you think is your "best." ONCE YOU SUBMIT YOUR PIC, FLICKR WILL NOT ALLOW YOU TO SUBMIT ANOTHER. (Sorry for the shouting, I just want to be sure everyone sees it.) Instructions for opening a Flickr account are on the site, if you don't have one. It's easy and free.
4. Please vote only once! I'm giving away free stuff, out of my own pocket ya'll. Let's all play nice.
5. Photos can be a band group shot, individual member shot, b/w or color, whatever you want as long as it fits the rules AND you think it will get the most votes.
6. No video please; this ain't no video contest.
7. This contest is void in any of those states that have silly laws against stuff like this.
8. Residents of anywhere in the world may participate (you just have to travel to the U.S. or Canada to a show so you can take pics.)
►Don't stop now, these bloody rules are almost over!
9. Prizes will ONLY be shipped to residents of the U.S. and Canada. (Sorry to all you foreign MOFRO fans but it'll dig real deep in my pocket if I got to ship this stuff overseas. But feel free to post--I just can't allow votes on your pic.)
10. You may retouch, photoshop, enlarge, reduce, turn sideways, take a picture of the picture of the picture with the picture inside...it don't matter; if you think you've got the winner, do whatever you want.
Amateurs only! No fair if you're a pro working the festival or the gig and can get all sorts of angles and shit that the rest of us can't. (I'll be a hard-ass and delete any pictures that get submitted by anyone who's a professional on assignment. I'll know; my Mama raised ugly chillun's, not stupid ones.)
These rules can be changed, ya'll. I don't anticipate it, but since I ain't never done anything like this before, I'm making this shit up as I go along.
