4 for the weekend, vol. 46

Happy Halloween everyone!  It’s a day late, I know, but it’s the thought that matters.  And what matters even more is that we’re getting back to an old favourite here on QBiM, 4FTW!  Whether you know the drill or not, here’s the scoop:  For a chance to win these four CDs, email me at CONTESTS at QUICKBEFOREITMELTS dot COM with “4FTW vol.43″ in the subject line and your mailing address in the body.  The contest closes Sunday, November 2, at 11:59 p.m.

In other contest news, congratulations to Darin from Hume, California for winning The Danks CD. It’s nice to know a little slice of Canadian power pop is going to brighten the Californian landscape.  Watch your mailbox, Darin, it’s on the way.
