Rolling Stone writer Rob Sheffield, who you may know from his previous book Love is a Mix Tape, has new memoir out called Talking To Girls About Duran Duran. It’s all about growing up in the 80’s: the music, the fashion, and liking the bands that girls like in order to get the girls to like you.
Sheffield will be here on Wednesday, July 28th at 7PM, and to celebrate we’re giving away an 80’s themed prize basket with a copy of the book included. Want to win? Just email us your CRAZIEST/MOST EMBARRASSING/MOST AWESOME photo from the 80’s. I’m talking about class pictures, glamour shots, family photos, etc. For you whippersnappers who weren’t alive during the most tubular of decades, I will accept photos from 80’s themed parties (but I might be snarky about it).
Email your photos to feedback@bookpeople.com. Be sure to put ’80’s Photo Contest’ in the subject line. We’ll print them out and pick the best photo at the event. In order to win you must live in the Austin area. It’s not nessecary to be present at the event in order to win, but you know…it would be cool.

that is awesome!! haha
