Pandora Energized Five Giveaway

Who doesn’t love a good set of batteries and some good tunes to listen to while gaming?  I’ve been doing a lot of secret stuff behind the curtains here at U360 to get you all involved in as much cool stuff as I possibly can.  I got introduced to a pretty cool internet radio service called Pandora which really made my long work days go by a lot faster.  You can create your own radio stations to jam to while on your cell phone (some of you), while you’re at home getting your game on or while at work like I do.  You can check out my stations here and even discuss it with other peeps here.

Energizer

Well this whole thing brought about a cool opportunity to shed more swagalicious joy upon you.  I’m going to “energize” five of you with a bunch of AA Energizer Advanced Lithium batteries and $20 iTunes gift certificates.  Yep, each winner gets a bunch of batteries and a $20 iTunes gift certificate.  You can essentially power your Xbox 360 media remotes, controllers or any other electronic toy for months.  And you can top it all off with some DRM free music from iTunes.  You love me just say it.  I just so happen to have some of these batteries powering my U-Verse remotes and my digital camera.  And who doesn’t love the little pink bunny with drums?

How can I be energized and win?

Simple.  Just leave a comment here about your favorite music artist to be eligible to win.  On January 18, I’ll energize five of you with a bunch of batteries and those iTunes certificates.  Remember, if you aren’t around to claim the prize someone else might be energized.

That’s it boys and girls.  If you make a radio station from the links above, link me to it so I can check it out.  It really helps the week go by when you’re sitting at a desk.  I also want to let you know that there are some specially marked Rock Band 2 Advanced Lithium batteries in stores that will get you a free track in the game!  Energizer and music are seemingly hand in hand these days eh?  Good luck.

Tweet this shit!

    I mostly like music that is a theme to a movie or TV show. Examples are the theme music for LOST or Dexter.
    If I had to pick and actual band though, let me say The Vandals. They are pretty good from what I’ve heard of them.

    I’m going to have to check out Pandora!

    I have only once bought music in my entire life (It was the Halo 2 Soundtrack), and not because I download music or something like that, I just have somehow avoided making it a part of my life.

    That said I definitely have a taste in music, one that is both eclectic and unconventional so I am not sure that I can name a single artist as my favorite, I guess I’ll just go with Martin O’Donnell since he is the main creative influence behind the Halo series music

    Awesome Deac I’m kind of surprised I’ve never used checked out pandora. I usually use imeem. My station will be filled with 90′s rap, you know back when it was good? I’m sick of all the lil wayne, t-pain, kanye crap that all the radio stations play over and over all day long. I’ll link my station when I acquire all the 90′s awesomeness necessary. First up lots of Geto Boys!
