Commercial?

Post by LesPaul30 »

I caught site of the MMIM commercial last night on ESPN. Was a commercial really necessary? I don't recall seeing one before for other albums.....

Yeah, it's kinda weird to see a commerical for a JB album on TV, isn't it.

Commericals were actually running relatively frequently for the Far Side of the World album last year on the Travel Channel and other cable channels.

Tequila, shimp, television commercials... what's next??? :D

Maybe I'm just hallucinating again, but I'd swear I saw a commercial for Far Side of the World when it came out... :-?

I'd love to see the commercial. I think marketing is great.

Nope, no hallucination... :) I remember seeing the commercial on the Travel channel every now & again.

All in all, it was pretty cool to see a commercial for Bubba on TV. Haven't seen the MMIM commercial yet. I'll have to keep an eye out for it.

I've seen Parrotthead condoms before. What web site was that on? I can't seem to remember right now.
