theweaselkingJosh Freese, former drummer for NIN, has taken the "digital download of album is cheap or free, pay more for bonus stuff" thing to a whole new level.
It starts simple enough - pay extra, get a T-shirt and a bonus DVD. Pay more, get a phone call from Josh thanking you and ask him anything you want for 5 minutes. Then it starts getting odd.
$500: "Meet Josh in Venice, Calif., and go floating together in a sensory-deprivation tank (to be filmed and posted on YouTube)"
$1000: "Josh washes your car OR does your laundry"
$10,000: "Twiggy from Marilyn Manson’s band and Josh take you and a guest to Roscoe’s Chicken ‘n’ Waffles in Long Beach for dinner
Josh takes you and a guest to Club 33 (the super-duper exclusive and private restaurant at Disneyland located above Pirates of the Caribbean) and then hit a couple rides afterward (preferably the Tiki Room, the Haunted Mansion and Tower of Terror)
At the end of the day at Disneyland, drive away in Josh’s Volvo station wagon. It’s all yours … take it. Just drop him off on your way home, though, please."
$20,000: "Maynard James Keenan, Mark Mothersbaugh from Devo and Josh take you miniature golfing and then drop you off on the side of the freeway (all filmed and posted on YouTube)
Josh writes 2 songs about you and both are made available on iTunes and appear on his next record (you can sing back up on ‘em, clap, play the drums, triangle, whatever)"
I've just hit some of the highlights. Read the whole thing - who could miss out on a chance to see Snoop Dogg's high school or pick anything you want out of Josh Freese's closet?
