People Magazine, Contests

Jun. 11, 2006 / Comments

There is a little (and i mean really little) mention of Billie Joe and his son Joey in the newest People Magazine. It's like "Match the kid" - it's pretty lame. Here's the scan. I wouldn't recommend buying it unless you want to see pictures of Brad and Angelina's new baby.

Today is the last day to enter our giveaway. If you don't win in this one, don't worry, we're starting another contest tomorrow. Expect exact details then. Just as a hint, musicians get your recording gear ready again.

Update 10:22pm: We fixed some problems with our news updates in our RSS feed and our toolbar. It should be updating normal again.
