The Arkenstat Songwriting Contest is OVER!

At the 2003 Bonnaroo Music Festival, amidst a sea of Trojan condoms, sat a dynamic legend and a pen. Joey would like to thanks everyone who dropped on by the Nexus of Arkenstat Tent (strategically placed next to the Trojan Tent).

Bonnaroo is a "hippyish" festival that took place in Manchester, Tennessee over the weekend of June 14-16. Joe decided to make the trip down to talk to "hippies" and investigate the "jam" scene, which is ultimately new to him. He sold some stickers and t-shirts as well (we've got some leftovers, so check them out!).

While down there, our man hosted a "songwriting contest." You write one line, he writes one, all in one minute's time. It brings us much satisfaction to be able to share all of the entries with you, and allow our site visitors to VOTE on the best tune!

The song, entitled "Sink In Sand," was recorded by Joey (lyrics by Anastasia Jones and Joey, music by Joey). It can be heard by clicking here and using your ears.

Your ear flap, the outside part that we know as the ear, catches sounds like a cup. Then sound travels down the ear canal to the eardrum. The eardrum is like a tiny drum, When the sound hits the eardrum it vibrates. Enjoy!

So, go explore the Arkenstat Does Bonnaroo site; check out some ArkenPhotos, ArkenTunes, and ArkenVids.
