Bad Brains & the Bad Brains Official Store are asking fans to submit photos of themselves showing off their favorite piece of Bad Brains merchandise via the Bad Brains Facebook Page. Fans can get their friends to vote on their photos, and the photos with the most votes will win prizes.

“Pay to Cum”, the seminal punk band’s debut single was re-issued earlier this year on 7″ vinyl for Record Store Day. A limited run of green & red vinyl (250 copies each) and gold vinyl (500 copies) was pressed, and sold out within a week.

Now fans once again have the chance to own these out of print vinyl gems, as Bad Brains are giving away a complete set of Pay to Cum 7″s and a $100 gift certificate to the Bad Brains official store as the Grand Prize for their Facebook photo contest.

All entries will also stand the chance to be featured on the Bad Brains Official Store website at http://www.badbrainsofficialstore.com. The contest runs from now until 12pm EST on Monday September 26, 2011.
