Happy Christmas folks! Pulse and I are feeling generous this year so, at our own expense, we're gonna send you some highly exclusive and very rare Pioneer stuff!
You may have noticed that Pioneer UK are giving away some awesome 2012 Calendars (as opposed to the 2011 calendars we gave out at BPM in October - one guy actually said "ah well, I can use it next year"). But Pioneer UK has thousands of followers and are only giving out 50!
Well, I got my hands on some so we're going to do something - haven't made up our minds who is deserving of what just yet.
I'll throw in a lanyard or two if I can find some around the house too.
I know Pulse has some pretty decent stuff on offer too but I'll let him tell you about that.
UPDATE BELOW!!
Comments
Oooh exciting!
Starting from now, we want to see some funny and festive pictures featured around you, Christmas and your Pioneer equipment.
Photos can be funny etc but please keep them PG. Post your entries here to this thread. There's no 1st place, 2nd place etc.... We'll keep mailing out prizes until they're gone to the ones we find the best.
This is very open ended so go have fun! For a greater chance of winning follow Pulse and I on Twitter:

Merry Christmas everyone! one thing I would love to find under my Christmas tree this year is a USB key with some nice FW updates for my DJM-2000 and CDJs ;)
Anyone getting some Christmas/festive photos up soon?
Let's see some of your photos guys... :)
I decided to take a quick shot today. As you can tell, I went all out on this one! ;) lol
I'll consider taking some more and getting into the spirit, but I need some motivation from others posting your pics. :D
Haha - c'mon guys, we're talking free swag here for a photo. It's not terribly difficult!
Does that mean mine seriously qualifies Pulse? lol
I'll get a couple more going but probably won't be today.
Hey everyone, I got a sneak peak of Santa's Workshop before Christmas...
Here was his plan for this year:

Here's my CDJ-2000 Christmas pictures! I hope I'll get at least a sticker because it took me over an hour to cut out the christmas paper, lol! :)
Happy New Year!

LOL good work!!
Trying to think something up but drawing a blank so far... :-(
@Pionix > lol drunk Santa loves to mix?
@oakstream > That's awesome! lol I'll take 2 please? :D
@Mark90 > If you have some HDJ's, hop outside in the winter weather and wear your headphones for earmuffs or something. lol Just a thought as that was something I was thinking of doing. You can take it though as I'm not good with making pictures look funny. ;)
@oakstream > LMFAO - BADASS! I'll give that a nod. :D
@Pulse, Pionix & Foster: Thanks for the comments! :)
It's a little bit hard to see, but it's Santa DJing in the cover art of the tracks! See attached picture.
Hahahahaha!

@oakstream > Haha that's great!! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you as well! I wish I actually read the player in the first place!! Great job mate!
@Pionix > He sure did.. with a cherry on top! ;)
I should have another one up this week as well, but in the mean time:
We didn't get a Christmas Tree this year... So I had to improvise!!
(see attached image)
LMAO - the image loaded slowly here so it was funny to watch it from top-down getting wider and wider. Well done. :)
haha, yeah it's 7.7 MB. I should have made it a bit smaller before uploading it, but I guess it gives a good effect the way it is.
Anyone want to guess how many lights I was able to fit on it? lol
@Pulse > Just wait until you see my next one in a couple days!!! It should top all of mine so far! lol
Ok, I got pretty delayed unfortunately, and my initial idea I decided was just rubbish. It's technically the twelfth and last day of Christmas, so I'm just in time still, so this is my even just as lame last ditch attempt. Enjoy a weird picture of my EFX wearing a santa hat with some bizarre blue angel wings. Merry EFXmas!

Achieved with an over-expensive camera, wide angle lens, 2 flashes, a blue filter and a remote trigger.
Oh, and a bunch of Pioneer gear and a santa hat.
I give that a WIN if only for style and the funny name! ;)
nice shot :)
good work
Heheh thanks! :-D
I must say, I like the Pioneer Christmas tree, and big kudos to the excellently crafted CDJ-2000 "DeXmasSaver"!
@Mark90 > That's a great picture! Well done!!
Unfortunately I won't be getting my last picture anytime soon as the weather has been the exact opposite of what I need right now. I'll get it as soon as I can for everyone.
Anyone who submitted anything! :D
OK, whats in store for the winners then?
Do people need to email you their addresses?
im sure people are very eager to gain swag :)
Sorry guys I just saw this. I love free stuff.
Jez guys, some of you need to resize your photos before uploading - I'm working on dual 23in monitors and I still have to zoom out to see the photos.
Ok, I guess I'll put some names in a hat and draw some names from all the entrants here. Fair enough?
@Pionix > Swag on my end is a nifty Pioneer 2012 calendar. Pulse has some toques to give away.
Perhaps we might divide the prizes up geographically.
We'll git'r sorted. You may be emailed for shipping contacts.
Sounds Great
Congratulations Foster > you are the first winner of 1x 2012 Pioneer DJ Calendar!
More winners to be announced shortly!
I had completely missed this thread, here is what I looked like just after Christmas :-) The Christmas Tree very nearly came out of the box but not quite :-p
Sweet baby Jebus....
LMAO :-)
Hmmm, Only If I could edit posts.. ;-)
hahahaha, those pics are great!!!
Sweet, thanks @Gavin!
@MrChukkel > Haha, great job and congrats!
@Everyone > I'm still waiting to get my final shot... haven't the opportunity yet. Hold tight and I'll get it as soon as I can. Maybe next year... lol
Cheers Guys :-)
Is Oak getting anything, he really does deserve something for all that cutting out :-p Much more effort than mine :-p
@Oakstream > I've a calendar for you - email me your address and I'll send one on!
Cool, thanks! :) I've sent it to your MA email.
Awww. shucks you mean i wont the white cdj2000's?
Awww thanks guys!!
wont = won***
Sorry gang, still need to coordinate with Gavin on the prizes and shipping, will be in contact this week!
It snowed in the UK, and melted last week. Then it snowed again, and melted again.
Hey Gav! Did you send the calendar by boat? lol! :) I haven't received it yet...
Cheers!
Huh, they assured me it was the fittest horse they had at the Post Office.
Hmm, Ireland and your horses... I've seen the horses you left on the street since your economy collapsed on the news... I feel sorry for them!
I don't know why they are taking so long....?!
Ho Ho Ho! The Irish horse was here today with my Pio Calendar! :)
Thanks Pio Crew!
i'll try harder next time ;)
Yeah that horse can move quick when it wants because it was here too :-p thx guys ;-)
Yea better luck next time I guess! :-(
erm..... im still waiting for me swag from last year :x
Some still hasn't gone out due to crazy winter schedules, I'll confer with Gavin this week to discuss.
