TexasGigs is thrilled to announce that we are working with the Dallas Mavericks to set up a competition that will allow local musicians to create the official playoff theme song for the Mavs.

Here is how the competition is going to work:

-Write a short Dallas Mavericks song that is no longer than 90 seconds. (Keep it clean. NO profane language will be allowed).

-Submit your song to TexasGigs, along with your written lyrics.

-Send mp3s via email to alancohen@pegasusnews.com.

-Send or drop off CDs to the TexasGigs offices

-You must submit your Mavs playoff theme song to us by April 1st at the latest (that means hurry!!)

-The Mavs playoff slogan is "Rowdy, Proud and Loud." It's not a requirement that you use the slogan, but it certainly wouldn't hurt your chances.

-After all the submissions are in, TexasGigs will work with the Mavericks to select at least four of the best entrees to be a part of the competition.

-We're still finalizing a few details, but there is a good chance that if there are multiple great songs, that runners-up will also get some exposure. We will be promoting this contest at Mavs games, here, and in Quick and on radio.

I will personally give the winning songwriter $5 if they can rhyme Didier Ilunga-Mbenga and DeSagana Diop in the same stanza.

$5, man - think about the possibilities.

I've just heard the first entry -- It's by a hiphop artist, and the bar is set high.

Rockers? Twangers? Better get on your game.
