jhh4321 Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 Can you imagine if Volkswagen stuck Glenn Kotche in their Palo Alto research facility? Who knows what he'd do. Maybe he'd write an album. Maybe he'd replace their "you left your lights on" beep. And maybe he'd let his crickets loose in the server room. Hey, it wouldn't be research if you knew what you were looking for, right? this is a funny image for me Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jff Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 Let's not pretend there's any more shame in selling your songs to a car company than there is in jumping through all the hoops necessary to get radio play. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
m_to_the_c Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 off topic, but still kind of funny: I used to drive a VW and the 3 note chime to remind me to put my seat belt on after turning the engine over worked its way, very prominently, into the main riff of one of our last songs. Sadly, they never asked ME to contribute songs for an ad campaign! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
OOO Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 Well i can definitely see why this topic needed its own separate thread. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

stonecipher Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 Corporate advertising supported publication supports music in corporate advertising. I don't think they have enough flashing, gimmicky banner ads on that page. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Edie Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 I was going to post in Sue's 62 page opus, but seeing as it hadn't been posted in today and was on the second page of the JAF forum, I decided to let sleeping dots dogs sleep. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bjorn_skurj Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 There's been a for-sale Touareg parked for like a month and a half at our local Dairy Queen. I am not going to buy it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jimmyjimmy Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 The band should seriously consider getting a gig poster design that incorperates one of these. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Analogman Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 The band should seriously consider getting a gig poster design that incorperates one of these. Someone with mad skillz should make that look like the Monkeemobile with Wilco on the side and whatnot. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LenF Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 Just as I am reading this thread with the Yankees-Giants game in the background, on comes the VW commercial with SBS. I think somebody is watching me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

tongue-tied Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 what's the shame in making a record for a label? that's how it originally worked and some damn fine ones were made. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
