Shoulda been on this earlier, Swirly! What's up! We're slipping, it's a young man's game!
Anyway, this sounds intriguing. I'm gonna give it a shot. Or six.

The prize is the grand opening of the pressing plant.

Maybe it's just me, but the rules of this contest seem as baffling as the Rosetta Stone.

Re: Jack White Acoustic Recordings Tin Man Contest
Yeah, how does this work? Do you need to reply to their hint? What do you need to include? Is it random, is it the first person to post it wins? Now that the cats out of the bag that the locations are centered around the billboards (knowing that they stipulated you must wait until the clue is posted) if I find the one in NYC I can just wait until the clue goes up and post it? If I sing my entry do I win?

That was my first thought, too. That'd be a hell of a night-- Event at TMR, then the Dirtbombs and Soledad Brothers at the Magic Stick.rsimms3 wrote:The prize is the grand opening of the pressing plant.
"And the message is clear: if we want Jack White as our hero, he will entertain, but not pander. We have to accept all his flaws, whims, caprices and manias as a critical, sometimes uncomfortable, part of the contract."

Maybe it's in the rules of the contest which I failed to read.

Ahh.
After reading the official rules I know why you sang your entry.

Regardless, at least we know it's not entirely based on who's first.
