Top Twenty Entrants: Reminder to get your music choice in for your dog to Dick Simon by August 10th!


If you would to have a specific walk-in song for the Top 20, please do the following NO LATER THAN AUGUST 10th:

(Remember, no explicit lyrics or nasty words)

Option 1)
Just email me the following information:
Song Name
Song Artist (many songs have been performed by multiple artists, I want to get the version that you want)
Is there some specific version (live, from a specific album, etc.)
Do you want the song to include the introduction, or start at a specific spot? (We only play for about a minute, and if a song has a twenty second instrumental intro, it might not be the section you want to start with.)

Option 2)
Make your song an mp3 file. (Large files will need to converted to a zip file in order for some email services to send and receive them.)
If you want your song to start someplace other than the start of the song (for example starting at the chorus ) you must send the file already edited to start at that point..we cannot start your song partway through...you have to send it exactly as you want it played.
The song file should be a minimum of approximately 90 seconds long.
No explicit lyrics, nasty words, etc.
When you have your song saved the way that you want it played,(option 2) or have made a selection for me to prepare, (option 1)
