So I was at my friend's house last night and she was all, "Have you seen that Chrysler commercial with the Octopus Project song in it?" and I was all, "Are you sure it was the Octopus Project?" So we searched YouTube and couldn't find anything about it but then today I'm obsessing with Twitter because of the whole "TwitPic the Eulogies Poster at End of an Ear NOW!! To Win Passes To Tonight's Show thing, and I find out it was actually Holy Fuck. Who, coincidentally are playing a show next month with the Crocodiles.

My friend was thinking of this Octopus Project, which is obviously more appropriate for a truck commercial.

In Yvonne's defense, Truck may very well be in a car commercail as well.
This guy at work who's in the know told me I'm supposed to like Crocodiles and I believe him. I haven't heard their music yet though. But tickets for the Holy Fuck/Crocodiles show are a reasonable +/-$10.

You can trust those in the know, they know.

Twitter Crash Course for Contest
If you're reading this on Twitter, disregard this post. For those of you who have no idea what Twitter is, or if you're only mildly familiar, here's some tips.
My first tip, is sign-up for Twitter, that's step one people. My next tip is the more people you follow the better Twitter is...up to a point. If you're following like more than 1,000 then Twitter will become your job. Which brings me to my next tip. If you're gonna get serious about Tweeting, you need to use something other than the Twitter website. There are tons of Twitter Apps out there just do a search.

I like to use Twhirl on the computer, or Tweetie for Mac. Hardcore-Twitter users prefer Tweetdeck.
If you're an iPhone/iPod Touch person, I would use Twitterfon or Tweetie. For Blackberry Twitterberry is pretty much your only choice.
Then there's also the all encompassing programs like Digsby, which handles all of your social networking needs.
The most important info is after the jump...
Now for the important part. I have two free passes to see Eulogies at the Parish Room tomorrow night and if you want them you need to get familiar with Twitter fast. Why? Because to get in to the show for free you're going to need to send me a Twitpic tomorrow afternoon.
It doesn't have to be sent using Twitpic but you have to make sure you use Twitter to send the message to @AustinBloggy. The @AustinBloggy is really important too otherwise I'll have no idea if you sent the pic or not. Personally I use Ping.FM for all phone tweeting and obviously that is acceptable as well. However, you MUST sign-up for some picture site in order to send pix using Twitter. So sign-up for Twitter first, then head over to Twitpic, where you'll get a unique e-mail address, to which you send your picture messages from your phone.
But stay tuned Monday afternoon to the @AustinBloggy Twitter page to find out what you need to Twitpic for your free passes to Eulogies! Oh yeah, you can also just buy tickets to the show if you want too.
