AMI has partnered with Universal Music to promote Queen's 40th Anniversary! Through a royally rad tie-in, five lucky fans will have a chance to win a 40th Anniversary Deluxe CD Prize Pack!
These Rock & Roll Hall of Famers were able to combine guitar heroics, opera-like harmonies, and undeniable heart, resulting in some of the most creative songs of the 70s and 80s. They began their majestic journey in 1971, and rocketed to stardom with the 1977 breakout album, News of the World, which featured iconic rock anthems, "We Will Rock You" and "We Are the Champions", along with the masterpiece "Bohemian Rhapsody" – a song that went Top 10 for the band twice (in 1976 and 1992). These British rock legends, who have had over 18 number one albums, are celebrating their 40th anniversary, and AMI wants to help give away a little piece of the Queen's history.
Fans can sign up to win the CD prize packs, through promo banners on AMI jukeboxes nationwide, from July 12th to August 2nd.

One of the most influential heavy metal bands of all time, led by one of the most recognizable voices in metal history, Bruce Dickinson – Iron Maiden has been blazing an extraordinary path (while building a rabid fan base) since 1975. An astounding feat, considering how music has changed. Rising in the era of hair bands, one would never mistake the complex, muscular sound of Iron Maiden for "glam" or "hair". They've stood the test of time, conquering four centuries worth of styles and sounds, consistently using historical reference and literary-themed songs (many named after actual poems) that have become their trademark. Iron Maiden are true masters of their craft who have reached legendary status, amazingly without ever releasing a Top 40 song in America.
Fans can sign up to win these great Iron Maiden prize packs through banners and promotional videos on AMI jukeboxes nationwide, from July 19th to August 16th.
