(TORONTO, April 23, 2007) ihaveanidea – Advertising's Intellectual Archive – releases the 3nd single ‘The Ballad of the Dog-walker’ from a series recorded by legendary ‘70s hard rock band Burn Back. The band will be headlining the Portfolio Night 5 World Tour on May 3rd in over 20 cities around the world.

ihaveanidea’s Portfolio Night 5 is the world’s largest simultaneous advertising portfolio review, featuring a uniquely designed portfolio review process in a “speed-dating” setting. The event helps students and aspiring young creatives around the world break into the ad industry, and involves the top creative directors in each participating city.

The third single released by Burn Back for Portfolio Night 5 is the sprawling epic, ‘The Ballad of the Dog-walker’. This moving saga tells the tale of a tortured soul familiar to many in the advertising industry. "Some creatives embrace The Dog-walker, while others shun him," comments Rupert, "but nobody can deny that their lives were touched by The Dog-walker at one point or another."

Check out the new 3nd single "The Ballad of the Dog-walker" and part three of their in-depth interview on Studio M’s television program “I’m With The Band” at:
