Don’t you just love the way Microsoft gets involved in music, sports, art etc! The way Microsoft supports the arts and sports is really cool! And they don’t just focus on one group, either. From the Latin Emmy’s in Vegas to the Telus World Ski & Snowboard Festival in Whistler, Microsoft/Zune is there in spades.

The latest promotion is pretty exciting - if you are a Canadian. Microsoft/Zune is looking to find Canada’s best, undiscovered band. (So if you are in a band and want to get discovered - here is your chance) The winning band gets to play live in front of 10,000 people during the Zune Concert Series in Whistler, BC. plus they will get introduced to some of the top reps, agents and producers in the Canadian music industry! Maybe we will see the Sam Bradley Band (local Vancouver band with some hot credentials as Sam Bradley co-wrote “Never Think” that Robert Pattinson sang in Twilight and has just returned from a recording do in Paris - see the following video of Sam Bradleys Band performing the song)
Never Think / Too Far Gone

And in typical Zune style, music fans can also get in on the deal. Just by providing contact details, Canadians over the “age of majority” can go into the draw to win a trip for two to the Zune Concert Series at the TELUS World Ski and Snowboard Festival in Whistler, BC. plus, a pair of Zune MP3 players! (runner up will win the two Zune players as well!). The festival runs from April 17 - 26, 2009.

Wowzune is going to be there - so if you win, let us know and we’ll hook up and do an interview for the blog.

Good luck - and don’t forget to share with your friends!
