FBME 2 - Favourite Cover Versions

The polls for the second Facebook Music Exchange are now closed. The winning theme is "Favourite Cover Versions" and people voted to carry on doing this via CDs sent through the post.


THE RULES:

1 - Pick your songs (15 tracks max) and burn them onto an audio CD. Choose the audio option rather than data or MP3 to make sure that your recipient can actually listen to it.

2 - Make a track listing. Feel free to do a fancy cover (or not) and maybe write a little bit about why you chose the songs that you did. Divulge as much or as little as you want.

3 - Post your CD to me! Use a slimline jewel case wherever possible and send it in a small jiffy bag with a "large letter" stamp on it. Regular stamps won't cover the postage and I'll end up having to pay, so don't do it! Sending your CD straight to me ensures that your address isn't given to someone you don't know. If you need a reminder of my address, see the Facebook group. It's a closed and moderated group so I don't mind putting it up there.

4 - Remember to include a note with your CD that has your name and address on it, and send a loose "large letter" stamp with it so I can forward your CD on to someone else.

5 - Make sure your CD reaches me by Friday, 19th December at the very latest as this is the day I'll be sending them all back out. If you haven't got one to me by then, you won't be getting one in return.

6 - I'll do my best to make sure that your CD goes to someone you don't know and it should therefore be a total surprise. Obviously I can't guarantee this so if there's someone you DON'T want to get your CD, make sure you let me know in advance.
