Win a free Gutter Gaunt Gangster vinyl
We did an interview this past weekend at Bonnaroo and just having read it, decided to make a competition around it. There are several incorrect facts and typos strewn out through the article. If you find 3, you get a digital GGG. Find 5 and get a 180 gram 12” vinyl GGG.
