Merry Christmas from... Megadeth?!

Megadeth are running a pretty cool promotion right now. If you are artistically inclined, you can win a personal phone call from Dave Mustaine on Christmas morning, a guitar lesson from Chris Broderick and some signed merch, too.

Megadeth wants fans to design a Christmas card. The winning card goes to all fanclub members, which is pretty cool in itself and makes me wish I had some drawing ability.

You don't need to be a fanclub member to enter. Just visit the band's official website for more information. The contest runs through December 3, 2008.

I think it is really nice that Megadeth sends their fanclub members a holiday card. I never even received my T-shirt from the Motley Crue fan club, nor did I get anything from AC/DC or George Michael.

Thinking about Megadeth's card campaign sort of puts me in the holiday spirit. Today is all about shopping in America: I love Black Friday. I'm pretty cheap so I love a good bargain. Nothing says "happy overrated holidays" like waking up at 3 a.m. to grab something dirt cheap. And yeah, I am actually waking up at 3 a.m.

The iron Maiden fc sends a xmas card. I think it's the best fc I've ever been in. I am in the megadeth one and it has a good range of intial swag, but not much follow up, the card notwithstanding.
