Our Project M finale was last week at The Brink Lounge. It was an amazing event and all three contestants were on top of their game. As you probably know, we selected Jimmie Linville as our Project M Champion. Click here to check out the finale.
Meanwhile, one of the fun "activities" we had at The Brink was a photo booth. David Moore the Operations Manager at Triple M and I thought it would be a good idea to get into the spirit of the night and throw on some costumes.
One simple word can explain our photo. Mistake.
No, that's not correct. Two words describe it better: BIG MISTAKE.
Today Kitty and I were trying to figure out the next musicial challenge for all the musicians take part in Project M. If you're not familiar with the show, 10 Madison musicians are battling to have their song played on regular rotation here on Triple M. Each week another musician gets eliminated. You can click here to find out more.
Anyway, each week the musicians have a different song writing challenge. This week we decided to make each musician draw a song title from a stack of CDs and they'll have to write a song based on the title.  They'll have to use the title at least once in the song. We came up with some good ones. Here are some of the ones we decided NOT to use, although it would have been fun to hear what they would have come up with if they had to use these titles.
"My Left Foot Has It's Own Brain"
"2 Girls, 1 Cup and a Guitar"
"Susan Boyle Shuffle"
"Swine Flu Blues"
"Please Stop Listening to this Song"
"Miss California Is A Smart and Caring Individual"
Have you heard the song "Rumble and Sway" yet on Triple M?
The singer sounds like a raspy blues dude who's definitely been around the block a few times....but surprisingly, Jamie N. Commons is only 23 years old!
He was born in England, but...
Last week, I decided I would try one new, healthy food a week, and asked my facebook friends to make some suggestions.
The first thing I tried was mango. I'm sure I've had other mango flavored things, and mango as part of something else, but...
There's only one thing that might be worse than the Neil Diamond/Barbra Streisand duet "You Don't Bring Me Flowers." And that's Jonathan Suttin doing his best crooning...doing both parts. Most unpleasant.
A lot of people liked this song...
Artist: Alchemilla
Hail From: Boston
Song: 'The Wheel'

Last weeks challenge we thought went excellent! Of course we are a little biased.
The drinking song couldn't have been any better, or any less fun. We had a blast through out the whole process, and our performance rocked.
This week is an easy...
So the story goes Michael Jackson completed this song while watching cartoons with Paul McCartney. We'll just let that sink in for a moment.
Not sure what cartoons they were watching, but it must have worked because this song made it to number 2...
The Dalai Lama is back in town, sharing his message of peace and kindness with likeminded individuals, and the Wisconsin legislature. He also held a private meeting with Gov. Walker, who said he mostly listened to what His Holiness had to say (wise...
This duet by Ol' Blue Eyes and his daughter went all the way to number 1 back in 1967. It seems a little creepy that Frank and Nancy Sinatra are singing a love song. However, a lot of Triple M listeners were in the mood for it.
