THE QUEERS w/ special guests KEPI GHOULIE and the RIPTIDES present:ROCKET TO AMERICA TOUR 2010

Ok, since it’s no secret that the QUEERS love the RAMONES, we’ve decided it would be great to have bands do a cover of their favorite RAMONES song. Here’s the info. we need from you:

-Send us a link to your band doing a cover of a RAMONES song. It can be from a live show via you tube or a ghetto recording posted on myspace. Please do not spend money trying to record something fancy. Any ghetto recording will do. And please don’t attach a wav file, just a link to the song. And do not send more than one song for us to check out.
-Please list the show that you are applying for.(Only one show per band) And that goes for the unconfirmed cities too. Please apply only for your hometown market. The purpose of this is to give a boost to the local music scene, so if you are from San Francisco, please don’t apply for the HOLLYWOOD show.
-When sending your info., please email gabe@asianmanrecords.com Do not reply to this email. Submissions not to Gabe will get tossed in the trash.

Ok, that’s the info. we need. As for how we are deciding the winners?? Well, I’m not quite sure. I’m thinking of doing some kind of online voting, but I’m not 100% sure yet. But wanted to at least open the door for submissions.

-The deadline to submit stuff is September 17th.
We will have all the winners announced by September 22nd.
The winning bands will receive a QUEERS prize package that includes a copy of their new album, button, and t-shirt for each member of the selected bands.
Below is a list of the confirmed shows and the unconfirmed shows. Again, please only apply if you are a local band in one of these markets.
