The Creation of The Sound of Young America

Posted by Maximum Fun on 6th July 2006

Today’s contest for a Kids in the Hall DVD set was to create a depiction of the creation of The Sound of Young America. Six brave listeners entered. Thanks to all six for entering, and congratulations to Max L. of Austin, Texas for his winning entry, selected at random.

I would be remiss, however, if I didn’t celebrate all the AMAZING entries… so here they are!
