kbomb106 Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 Have they done the drawing yet? They said the drawing would be "on or about June 1." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUSHian62 Posted June 1, 2011 Author Share Posted June 1, 2011 I guess they haven't yet. I must have entered over 60 times! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Mighty Dudad Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 I haven't heard anything...unless you count the daily spam from Musician's Friend that I apparently agreed to when entering the contest... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InvisibleAirwaves13 Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 I entered every day. No mention of a drawing yet but the site is closed to new entries. Winning that contest would be awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUSHian62 Posted June 3, 2011 Author Share Posted June 3, 2011 I still haven't heard any news. I've been a Rush fan since 1975, and I played covers of Bastille Day, Finding My Way, Anthem, and Working Man for our school concerts. I was so influenced by Alex's playing, I purchased a Gibson Double Neck, a ES 347, and a Howard Roberts Fusion. I had to sell them all when I got married years ago.

ioc Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 I am so ashamed of myself. I secretly hoped that no one else knew about this contest. I really wanted to win. I don't have any 'quality' guitars. Mine play fine, so I can't complain, but I sure would like to have one really really nice one; and that Gibson is the one I wanted. Â Plus hitting the Vegas show would be outrageous!

RUSHian62 Posted June 3, 2011 Author Share Posted June 3, 2011 I think we all want to win! LOL! best of luck to all who entered! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMWriter Posted June 3, 2011 Share Posted June 3, 2011 I entered, but if I won I was gonna give the guitar to my dad. Since I don't play guitar and my saxophone (which my folks got for me) was like twice as expensive, if not more, than my dad's best guitar. Â The Vegas show is all I really wanted. Â Good luck to all you guys, though!! I know a lot of you are very talented musicians and you'd ALL be very deserving of that beautiful guitar.

PriestfromSyrinx Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 I wasn't even able to enter, I think it's quite dissapointing that Gibson forbids Quebec residents from participating, I know it's the same for most contests of any kind but Rush recorded 7 of their album here at Le Studio, they could have made an exception like Showtech Merchandising do on the Backstage Club... I wish I could have had a chance in a billion to get my hands on one of those guitar than none at all, it's sure I'll never be able to afford one at over $6000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUSHian62 Posted June 6, 2011 Author Share Posted June 6, 2011 I'm sure son guy who already has 3 of them will win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be the worst, I think. :C Of course I'd probably be too scared to play the guitar, it's so nice, but to sell it on Ebay..? That's kind of a disgrace IMO.
