  77s iPod...would you buy one??

I hope I don't get any 'thumbs down' for this because some may think it is a stupid thing to bring up but what would everyone think of a special iPod full of everything the 77's, Lost Dogs, Mike Roe, etc. ever recorded?? I am in the middle of doing it to one of my iPods now and I thought it would be a sweet idea. I have converted some rare mp3's and added them to my itunes as well as my collection and am in the process of putting them on my iPod right now. I just thought that it was a good idea. Anyone out there , please let me know what you think........good or bad. Thanks.

Also, please do not think that I am trying to do this as way to make money. I wasn't implying that any responses here indicated a 'sale' of some kind. I just was throwing out there as an idea. I wasn't offering to do this for a fee, i just thought of it as I was doing it coupled with the idea of the U2 iPod several years ago and thought it would be great for something like this for the 77s fans.

I talked to Mike about this 6 months ago....

He didn't seem all that interested....to be really honest....at least at the time.

I've been kicking around the idea of doing one-of-a-kind ipods with Lo-Fidelity releases that would be give-aways....found a company that will do high end logo etchings on the backs of ipods, so it could be cool.

I don't talk project details befre ink is dry, but in the event some things happen with the label and 77's, the chance of the ipod thing coming up again is good.

I would replace my current iPod for this one, hands down.

Great idea!

Cool

So stuck in the past I guess. I don't have an ipod, and I'm doubtfull I will have one.

Totally missed that part! Very classy. 88Gb...77Gb...heck, even 123Gb...it's all good!

You could even put the 77s DVD contents on there...or at least the music videos...and a handful of most-popular bootlegs, too.

Hey, U2 signed theirs...

Man, I'm REALLY getting excited about the idea. Big Grin

I would love this idea!!!!!! And if some unreleased stuff (perhaps from Scratch Band/Shirley goodness stuff) was added it would be even better as I have all the 77's/Mike Roe/Lost Dog CDs. It would have to be the biggest version though so it takes a long time for me to fill it up!

I'd consider buying one for sure. Cool



Posted by Marti on 02-16-2007 at11:53:

 

That would take a considerable amount of fun out of the experience, to my way of thinking, but then I'm not an iPod person.

Did you have a question or comment Larry...or were you just re-posting my comment? (just curious...)
