My New Favorite Way to Procrastinate
The Fake Albums Group. I found this little gem of a facebook meme today. Here's the rules:
1: Go to "Wikipedia." Hit “random... Read More”
or click http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random
The first random wikipedia article you get is the name of your band.
2: Go to "Random quotations"
or click http://www.quotationspage.com/random.php3
The last four or five words of the very last quote of the page is the title of your first album.
3: Go to Flickr and click on “explore the last seven days”
or click http://www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days
Third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.
4: Use photoshop or similar to put it all together.
5: Repeat until your term paper is late, your boss is angry, your library books are over due, etc.
ok, so maybe i added step 5, but anyway... here's mine:
oddly enough that looks like an album i'd probably buy.
upload yours to the comments, i want to see!
