So you think you can do Al’s job?

Well, now you’ve got your chance. The 2007 International Songwriting Competition has a new category this year: Comedy/Novelty. The judges for this category are David Cross, Cheech Marin, and, you guessed it, “Weird Al” Yankovic. It’s your chance to show Al and the world what you got. All entries must be postmarked on or before October 15, 2007. For rules, prizes, and other details, please see the 2007 International Songwriting Competition website. Best luck to anyone who enters!! :D

(Thanks to Vikki for the heads up!)

    Do they not have a category for just written lyrics?

  4. Richard Latanville Says:

    To torsoboy; those songs are pretty much the same. :)

  5. elvis Says:

    Yeah, like Al and Allan Sherman.

    Hmm… Charge is 35 dollars to enter.

    I don’t think my backlog of narcissistic, in-joke-encrusted parodies is easily understood enough to justify the cost of a Maddox t-shirt.

    So, good luck to those with material those outside of your circle of stooges can understand.
