Good and Bad news

Got this message today

Hey Layla

I bring good news! You have just been picked out of the hat as a winner of our Black Stone Cherry competition

I say its good news but there is also some bad news

The good news is you will be sent a pair of tickets for Hard Rock Calling at the end of June by Live Nation who organise Hard Rock Calling

The bad news is, as you may have read in the press, Black Stone Cherry’s record company Roadrunner Records are shutting down tomorrow in the UK so we are not sure what is happening with the meet and greet element of the competition as they were kindly managing that part for us. Obviously we will try and make it happen but it’s a difficult time for the label with it shutting down and our friends there all facing redundancy

We will do our best and keep you posted if we get some good news

For now though, well done on winning the competition!
Thanks to everyone who posts

    Sorry about the meet and greet part though, even if you weren't that bothered about it. I hope it happens though. Would be a nice bonus. :D
