Nothing Spaces

Post-Holiday Give-Away. // December 27, 2009

Dear Nothing Spaces reader —

First of all:

As is probably obvious by this late Christmas greeting (that I recycled from the one I made for my Tumblr followers, for shame), I am awful with timing. I am so awful that what I intended to be something done by Christmas still hasn’t pushed through.

What I am trying to say is that I’m giving away 6 The Strokes shirts. They are handmade (as in, not official band merch) and are ill-fitting the way band shirts usually are, but they are free and they are helpful in proclaiming that you like the Strokes, and they were in the first Transformers movie.

My brother made them a long time ago and decided to give a bunch away, but I managed to wrestle away 6.

Leave a comment, and you get one. I’ll close this in a few days. If more than 6 comment, I’ll put all your names in a hat and the first 6 I draw will get them. :) If no one comments, I’ll go skulk away in a corner and cry.

So, there. That’s it! Leave a comment (any comment, but I’m curious as to what Strokes song is your favorite, so that’d be a nice comment) and we’ll see what happens.

Merry Christmas. :)

And because I feel this is obligatory, my Christmas loot:

11. O HAIIIII! Hahahaha! That would be an awesome shirt to do surgery on! <3

    Comment by Reggie — December 27, 2009 #

12. LOL. Got so excited that I forgot to include my favorite song. “Someday” is also my favorite song by them. :))

    Comment by Patricia — December 27, 2009 #

13. Increasing comment count! :)

    My favorite The Strokes song is Heart in a Cage. Although we played 12:51 as a band for a contest once (lol)and Last Nite, Reptilia and Under Control come in a 3-way third position.

    Comment by Klarisse — December 27, 2009 #

14. one for me please! :)

    Comment by jes — December 27, 2009 #

15. Oh my goodness.
    You have no idea how stoked I am about this. ; ;
    I really like Razorblade, Red Light, and the B-side to the Juicebox single, Hawaii. How about you?
    Umm. I think Julian Casablancas is a god. My current prized possession is a poster promoting his new solo album which my brother bought for me from one of his gigs. My new guilty pleasure song is Boombox by The Lonely Island featuring him. Oh, and I hate his new hair.

16. Drop my name in that hat. :)

    Comment by Kamyl — December 27, 2009 #

17. Forgot to say: “Under Control” or “Someday” or “Last Nite” or “What Ever Happened”, definitely.

    Comment by Raymond — December 27, 2009 #

18. Hi! It would really really be so awesome if I get one! :)

    Comment by Les — December 27, 2009 #

19. WAAAAAAAAANT! Count me in the hat. I meant, my name. :D

    Comment by Lin — December 27, 2009 #

20. i literally hyperventilated when i saw your tweet, & then panicked a bit when i clicked the link & it wasnt working.

    OH GOD I AM SO LAME.

    but yes i would love for my name to be in that hat & (with a bit of luck) for it to be drawn out!

    favorite songs would have to be “12:51″, “what ever happened”, “last nite”, & “automatic stop” <3

    Comment by kasey — December 27, 2009 #

21. Yay The Strokes. I can’t choose a fav song. ;)

    Comment by Diana — December 27, 2009 #

22. Because even if there are more than 6 comments… and I have the worst luck in raffles… (and because you said, “You’ll never know.”)

    Fave song: Someday

    Happy Christmas!

    Comment by Cake — December 27, 2009 #

23. Pretty, please?

    Oh, it’s You Only Live Once (the music video as well).

30. :D the first band my boyfriend showed me when we first met <3!

    Comment by adriana — December 27, 2009 #

31. I don’t know if I could join, since I’m ON THE OTHER SIDE of the world, and I never win raffles or anything that requires just pure luck, haha.

    But, hey, YOU ONLY LIVE ONCE (fave Strokes song), right? And there isn’t anything wrong in TRYING YOUR LUCK.

    Excuse those two horribly written (but punny) paragraphs, haha.

    Merry Christmas! Thanks! : )

    Comment by Christine — December 27, 2009 #

32. gee whiz, your fam. has too much street cred. i wish i had brothers that stashed away strokes tees for a rainy day.

    for hammond jnr solo; the end has no end, for valensi solo; reptilia – in general and overall probably a toss up between last nite and someday, though depending on my mood it could very much be something moodier re: under control, ask me anything or between love and hate. not to get specific or anything. NOT GOING TO LIST ENTIRE STROKES BACK CATALOGUE BECAUSE THAT IS THE WRONG ANSWER.

    why do i always word vomit on your web spaces? sorry.
