I don't know if you heard it, but it was played several times at the stadium. 800 million people have now heard David's Lazy Jones tune... how about that?

C64 tunes are everywhere...

It's become kind of traditional now, I think: they also play it at Hockey games! It's the new "Take me down to the ballpark"

So, did Dave settle for a flat fee, or a cut of the earnings? If the former, he may have missed out - Superbowl fees can be huge.

Flat fee as far as I'm aware. Something like Ã‚Â£8k. Yes, that low. Chris will know the real figure, I'm sure.

Oh, and it's "take me out to the ballgame" that it's replaced. You can hear a C64 cover version in /GAMES/S-Z/Sporting_News_Baseball.sid in HVSC.

It was 10,000 Euros. Further comment is unnecessary, other than: it wasn't my idea.
