For Christmas I got all the kids in my life two things in order to try and sway their young and impressionable minds in the right musical direction. Each child got their own Indie Rock Coloring Book and each house hold got a copy of the Indie Rock Alphabet Book. Even with ordering the presents later than I should have they all arrived just in time for gift giving day. The one surprise though was that Paste Magazine’s distributing center sent my order of 3 Indie Rock Alphabet Books twice. So now I was sitting on 6 books only 3 of which I had plans for. I’ve contacted Paste Magazine twice trying to figure out how to get the additional books back to them, after all not 6 months ago they were about to go bankrupt. After no replies I sent my last email saying that if I didn’t get a reply I was just going to raffle them off on the blog. Lucky for you there has been no reply.
So tMiM will be holding a giveaway to two lucky people (I know, you’re saying that there were 3 extra books. You’re right but I’m being greedy and keeping one for my future indie rocker). To enter simply send an email titled Indie Rock Alphabet Book Giveaway with your name and address (US citizens only on this one please, the shipping’s coming out of my pocket after all). Entries will be accepted until January 29th and the winners will be contacted via email.
Update: The wife has a good idea in the comment thread. With your entry please include how you will use this book to rear your children, future children or how you could have used it to raise the children that have already grown up.





Great idea. I’d enter myself if I wasn’t going to be the future mother of the indie rocker. But I do think it would have been fun to ask entrants to describe how they would use the books to spread the love of indie rock to the up and coming generation.
