Impatient commuters in Singapore can now drown their tardy anxieties in Ronin's tunes (a local indie outfit)… provided they bring their own earphones. As part of Motorola's marketing efforts for its ROKR E2, five bus stops have been converted into impromptu listening posts from August 10 to September 6. For patient listeners who skip the bus queue for the music line, a phone number will be revealed at the end of a song. SMS to that and one commuter will have an opportunity to go one up on his karaoke-mad neighbor when he wins the chance to host the band in his home.
Get your music dose at the following bus stop locations: Orchard Boulevard (opposite Orchard MRT Station), Victoria Street (in front of Bugis Village), Dunearn Road (outside Nanyang Girls School and National Junior College), Temasek Polytechnic (opposite main entrance) and Somerset MRT (opposite Hotel Phoenix and in front of the skate park).
