Seriously, what will those Judi Chicago boys think up next?

Looking for that perfect last minute gift? Now’s your chance to blow your mom, girlfriend, kid sister, uncle, aunt, brother, great-grandma away! Last Saturday’s ACFB benefit put on by AFTTD and 4thwardheroes went so well, it gave us a great idea. For a donation of just $10 to the Atlanta Foodbank Judi Chicago will create a personal 30 second chiptune about anything you’d like, lyrics and all. Give the gift of Judi and put food in some hungry mouths!

To enter:

First send an email to: judichicago@gmail.com with your song topic and anything you want included. Once we reply go to the Atlanta Foodbank website and donation at least $10 online to the organization (tax deductible). Then forward us a quick email with a copy of the receipt (minus any personal info on it) and we’ll get to work!

We’ll deliver your song to you via email in mp3 format by the end of the day, Christmas eve. Please let us know first as there’s only so many songs we can make between now and the 24th! Also please let us know if you’d like us to share your song with the world when its finished.

-Baron Saturday

Awesome fellas!

Bidding will close before the show gets started and winners will be announced on stage. Save those raffle tickets. We will be raffling off some cool prizes from the stage throughout the night! I will be updating this post later on today with a list of our generous sponsors! So check on back. As always, I hope to see you at the show! M!
