The White, Black, Gray, and, now, Thin White Album

The Thin White Duke David Bowie is allowing fans to "mash up" any two of his songs together for a new contest, according to Reuters. EMI's cease-and-decist order to the hit mash up "The Grey Album" recently made the news. Reuters writes:

"Singer David Bowie has invited his fans to mix two of his songs together, extending a hand of friendship to underground bootlegging enthusiasts.

"The rocker, currently touring with his 26th album 'Reality,' has invited his supporters to splice a song from the album with any other track from his back catalog as part of a six-week contest.

"Bowie is on the panel of judges who will pick a winner and runners-up from among a publicly voted shortlist of entrants."
