Sidefight suggestion

Post by marnargulus »

Perhaps a sidefight of "make an advertising jingle"? Songs would only be between 20-45 seconds long, and would need to be radio friendly? I'd love to have a collection of those to play on my radio show as fake commercials.

That would be fun. I would add the requirement that it really HAS to be a commerical jingle, meaning you have to choose a commercially available product and sell it in the lyrics.

BTW there are no rules or protocols for sidefights. People just start them if they want to and they think there will be interest. Go for it!

Wouldn't fake products be fun as well? Presented as if they're real. Like the old SNL commercials for Quarry Cereal ... "and quarry has 5000% of the recommended daily allowances for all minerals. Quarry...tastes great, because it's mined".

Of course a serious jingle for those little twist-on wire terminators would go places.
