1Tommy Silk is a totally fictitious
character, created solely for the promotion of theJingleGenerator.com
because we didn’t have the budget to hire
someone famous or use their name without getting our pants sued off. Any
resemblance to real music moguls, living or dead, is purely
coincidental. So there.
