TAKING BACK SUNDAY, PLAIN WHITE T'S CREATE FOOD FOR DENNY'S

Posted by Scott Heisel on 15-May-08 @ 02:56 PM

Casual-food chain Denny's has launched a music-themed minisite titled Denny's All Nighter. The site allows fans to vote on which bands should become sponsored by the chain and receive free food (between the hours of 10 p.m. and 5 a.m. only); every two months, six new bands will be put up for voting (submit your band here). The initial recipients of this sponsorship include Forever The Sickest Kids, Foxy Shazam and Take The Crown.

Additionally, the chain is also having four bands -- Taking Back Sunday, Plain White T's, the All-American Rejects and Eagles Of Death Metal -- create what are called "Rock Star Menus," where each group invents their own dish to be served on the menu. Taking Back Sunday, the first band to visit the kitchen, will have their currently untitled creation debut in Denny's nationwide this August.
