(TORONTO, May 1st, 2007) ihaveanidea – Advertising’s Intellectual Archive – releases the 4th and final single ‘Award Show Bedlam’ 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 23 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.

Burn Back's fourth single, released just in time for Portfolio Night 5, is the raucous party anthem 'Award Show Bedlam'. "This song is a celebration of what award shows are all about: getting completely hammered on the company tab, hitting on equally inebriated attendees, and complaining about how bad the sushi is," explains Brucie. "I suppose you also go to these things to salute great creative, but you have to admit that's low on the totem pole."

Check out the final single “Award Show Bedlam” and part four of their in-depth interview on Studio M's television program “I’m With The Band” at:
