So a typewritered note comes through the door of DiS towers - IT'S ONLY EDDIE VEDDER OF PEARL JAM FAME.
It says 'guys, loving what you're doing. We have a new single sort of coming out Nov 30. It's called 'Just Breathe', and to celebrate this fact we would like to offer YOUR READERSHIP the chance to win a copy of Rock Band 2 for the Xbox 360, along with a download to be able to play our new record Backspacer on it - you'll be JUST LIKE STONE GOSSARD, only with a computer, and less minted. Also we can toss in a signed 7-inch cover of Backspacer, complete with four special inserts of the album art work inside. It's a real collector's item, you know?'

Well it was something like that, we were drunk, maybe it was just the PR emailing us. Anyway, to win both of these fabulous prizes, simply complete the below sentence - best answer wins.
IF I WIN BOTH PRIZES, YOU CAN TRUST ME NOT TO SIMPLY FLOG ONE OF THEM BECAUSE...

My girlfriend is completely gay for Pearl Jam so I'll give it to her and she'll fucking love it and I'll look like the greatest boyfriend ever, she won't want to sell it because she loves them so much but she's banned from ebay anyway so she couldn't flog even if she wanted to. Then I'll keep the xbox stuff for myself so I can annoy her by beating her at playing her favourite songs on Rockband.
*checks watch*
Isn't it time you wrapped this one up now? Like, before we get several thousand day trippers from the Ten Club forums signing up with usernames like VedderWife371 and StevenFlow12.
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon......

my dad has been a die-hard Pearl Jam fan since 92, and if he found out that I won and got rid of his Christmas presents, he would seriously disown me... and much, much worse.

I respect wood. There's no better sign of trustworthiness...

The memory of my teenage years would forever be sullied by the onslaught of Ebay pop ups.

I am 16 years old. My generation will be remembered for Soulja Boy and Twilight. And those in my generation that can appreciate Pearl Jam, Nirvana, Metallica, and other BETTER rock bands deserve rewards like autographs from the band. (For example, I'm listening to Nirvana - All Apologies from the Reading Festival cd as I type.)
Pearl Jam has also inspired some of my poems, so I really love Eddie's lyrical talent. (The lyric "I know some day you'll have a beautiful life, I know someday you'll be a sun, in somebody else's sky, why, why, why can't it be mine?" is a personal favorite.)
And rather than have two copies of Rock Band 2, I'd just give it (read: GIVE, not sell) the copy you give me to my friend as an early Christmas gift. She's new to gaming and doesn't have too many games to call her own, but she likes Guitar Hero and Beatles Rock Band, so she'd really appreciate this.

I am not a tool!
But more than that, I am a huge PJ fan and I would rather win it outright than find it on Ebay in a month because the person that pulled the wool over your eyes thinks he can fly under the radar and flip it. So, to prevent that and not make some tool rich at my expense, it makes total sense to just pick me as the winner.
Thanks in advance!

if I did, I would never forgive myself for selling off memories of the best years of my life.

I have AIDS, Cancer and MS and i'll die if you don't give them to MEEEEE!

I'm a Betterman than that. And if I don't win I'll be a Nothingman. (I don't think this really matters but I also look good in Leatherman.)
Okay, comp closed
Spiritofjazz's contributions to Pearl Jam DiScussion over the years noted - he can have the signed goodies, but not clear that he's up for the game, so I'll PM him to see if he's arsed about it, if not we'll award two prizes, yeah?
I am entering it because I am terribly poor and this is the best present I can give my Pearl Jam-Obsessed but internet illiterate mother for Xmas. She deserves it SO MUCH!!!!
