  • More Ways to Support Letters for Lyrics

    In June I told you about Letters for Lyrics from Zac Brown Band and Dodge, which was a campaign I loved in its original format then. But my friend Amber sent me a tweet today letting me know about a new component they’ve added to this campaign and I love it even more now!

    Zac Brown Band and RAM Trucks Letters for Lyrics Continues to Salute the Troops

    By saluting the troops you can receive a free CD Breaking Southern Ground. This exclusive compilation, not sold in stores, features Southern Ground Artists Zac Brown Band, Sonia Leigh, Nic Cowan, and Levi Lowrey.

    Here’s how it works:
    Write a letter to a soldier
    • Take it to a RAM dealer
    • Receive the free CD

    Please help us reach our goal of sending one million letters! If you cannot make it to a RAM dealer or Zac Brown Band concert, you can write your letter online and donate your copy of the Southern Ground CD to a soldier. Every letter brings us closer to our goal of 1,000,000 letters.

    While you are on the Letters for Lyrics page, watch Part IV of the exclusive film “For Those Who Serve.” The documentary follows Zac Brown Band on their April USO Tour in the Persian Gulf and features the band performing for the troops, meeting individually with the men and women overseas, and sharing their thoughts on the experience.

    Visit the RAM Letters for Lyrics page now!

    If your prior excuse was that you had no time to get to a Dodge dealership (or that you didn’t care to get the CD), it’s now easier than ever to participate! So… get to it! 🙂

  • Add This to Your Christmas List

    I was debating whether or not to blog about this, but it’s gotten a TON of attention on my facebook… so apparently the people approve!

    My question to my twitter/facebook friends was this, “Do you think my Tarheel boyfriend would kill me if my car played the NC State fight song when I unlock the doors?”

    The press release I read about the Motor Mouth includes the following:

    “Looking for the perfect gift that someone will enjoy long after the holiday season is over? Look no further than Motor Mouth, the product that can turn anyone’s car or truck into a personal broadcast system. The product, which gives individual vehicles a unique ringtone so owners can tell the world what they are passionate about, is available in several sound series including hunter and sportsman, specific colleges, auto racing, barnyard, holiday and several others.”

    “Sounds available include: Sportsman Series: wild turkey (NWTF Licensed), duck commander, wild boar, goose, deer, duck and elk. Sports fans can enjoy the “Start Your Engines” race series or baseball, while the lifestyle series offers holiday sounds, barnyard animal sounds, horse sounds and hound dog sounds. The company also has exclusive rights with NC State University, East Carolina University, West Virginia University and University of Tennessee to market the sounds unique to those schools, including the school’s fight songs.”

    After several “likes”‘ and amusing comments on facebook, it appears that boys AND girls are a fan of this. I imagine people would have a fit over it in the parking lot at the NCSU vs. UNC game this weekend.

    I personally don’t need to attract any more wildlife than necessary (the deer are everywhere this year, drive safe!), but I do like the selection they have and think my car should play the NC State Fight Song… or maybe something NASCAR (I prefer “Boogity, Boogity, Boogity” over “Start your engines”, but I guess DW has that trademarked!).

    If you are so inclined, you can check out their website.

    {PS} This blog post was not endorsed or sponsored by Motor Mouth, nor am I employed by them – I just thought it was kinda cool. Lucky for them, huh?
