PHOTO CONTEST FUN! WIN A BAR/NONE ALBUM!


Our last photo contest seems to have stumped everybody since we didn't receive any winning entries, but this one should be easier.  Send your answers to barnone30th@gmail.com and win a vinyl album from the Bar/None catalog!

1.) This shadowy figure is Bar/None founder Tom Prendergast hard at work at Hoboken's favorite record store in the Eighties and Nineties.  What was it called?


2.) Owner Glenn Morrow might have been the front man, but The Individuals weren't on Bar/None until the label reissued their discography in 2009.  The album was entitled Fields but what was their 10" EP called?


3.) Yo La Tengo had more bassists than Spinal Tap had drummers until they found James McNew.  Can you name the bass player in this photo from Hoboken's River City Festival, taken just before the band recorded Fakebook?  (Clue: The answer is on this blog somewhere!)

4.) The Bongos were one of the most important bands from the Hoboken music scene that spawned Bar/None, but singer/guitarist Richard Barone wouldn't actually be on the label until 2010.  What was the title of Richard's Bar/None debut? 



5.)  Bar/None has released two live sets by the late Alex Chilton, including Electricity By Candlelight in October, 2013.  In what legendary New York City nightspot was the album recorded?


Remember, send your answers to barnone30th@gmail.com and the first person with all five correct responses will win a Bar/None vinyl album from the catalog!
