I’m not sure what the Santa Cruz Forever TCB Brick project is about, but I’m sad to see the Broken Social Scene Writes A Song About YOU auction has ended.

Broken Social Scene will write a song about you or someone you know, but they aren’t going to make it easy (on them). You will give them contact information for your friends (no more than 10) and family so Kev and crew can call and get the truth.

Went for $810.

If you’re a huge Canadian indie rock fan with that kind of cash to throw around, Feist Will Sing Your Song Onstage With You!

The highest bidder will win the opportunity to join Feist on stage at one of her shows in the next year. Feist and band will learn the winner’s song (written by them) or the winner’s choice of song (cover) prior to the show (this means that you will have to send her the song ahead of time). Additionally, you will (together) have a rehearsal at the venue prior to that night’s show. The winner (you) and Feist will then perform this song together on stage. You will have the choice of at least 60 North American and European tour dates over the next year as Feist will be touring non-stop across all of these lands. You are responsible for travel and accommodations.

High bid is currently $785.00. Auction ends in less than three hours.

Sadly the Peaches auction was pulled from eBay. Something about not being allowed to sell used thongs. But you can get this ball of yarn “instead.”

A hit song can be a blessing and a burden, a fact Leslie Feist knows well. After more than a decade spent underground, releasing albums solo and with rock collective Broken Social Scene, the Canadian singer hurtled into high orbit in 2007 after her pop ...

  1. Is it a used ball of yarn?

    I think we are still bidding on the dirty whores used panties, not the yarn. That’s the implication, right? Or am I “misreading” something.

    Correct.

  5. As I mentioned earlier, my cat Mr. Boo won the winning bid to be immortalized in song back in May, long before these other copycats appeared on the scene.

    The world awaits this fine production.

    The auction is to buy (Toronto visual artist & Three Gut Records co-founder) Tyler Clarke Burke a house. She’s gathered a bunch of her friends to help collect the cash by auctioning off their talents…and apparently thongs. That is the sad state of the Canadian music industry.

  7. damn, i want a song written about me…too bad i don’t have that kind of money to spare (i think the feist thing went for close to $2,500)
