REPOST: ESP Guitars, The Acacia Strain and Metal Injection present: THE GOD DAMN HALLOWEEN COSTUME CONTEST
- Posted by metalinjection on October 28, 2011
As you may know, The Acacia Strain is heading out on tour with Terror, Stray From The Path and Harms Way (dates here), and to celebrate that and the fact that Halloween is right around the corner, the band and ESP are teaming up with Metal Injection for a good old fashion Halloween costume contest. We want to see the most creative ideas you have, and the coolest costume will score themselves a FREE ESP LTD EC100qm guitar! How sick is that?
How do you enter? Take a photo of yourself wearing your costume by November 1st (the day after Halloween), upload the photo to Imgur, or any other photo sharing site. Post the link to your image in the comments of this post. We will stop taking entries on November 1st, and then pick the funniest, awesomest, most metal costume as the winner. Contest is open to US residents only (sorry guys, ESP only ships into the US). Have fun and let's see those awesome costumes!
UPDATE: In order to prevent cheating, when taking a photo of yourself, make sure to hold up a piece of paper that says either "Get Your Fix" or "Fuck The Acacia Strain"

This is AMAZING!
Just saw the requirement updates to hold up a sign in your pic. My picture was taken before I came across this contest, so I can't exactly do that. However if you look at the rest of http://electronicthroat.tumblr.com you can clearly see it's me (and the beard is real).
