Virtual Concert Lighter

Chris McGinn posted a blog on Digital Landing. Read about the virtual lighter to take with you to your next concert.

I kid you not. In the good ol’ days, concertgoers would flick their lighters to pay homage to favorite songs in swaying harmony with thousands of others. Now with smoking bans, etc. the lighter has been replaced by cellphone screen lights.

Welcome to the next generation–the virtual concert lighter for iPhone and iPod touch. This app which is KISS-customized is the first of what will be a whole category of iPhone applications.

Features of the KISS Virtual Concert Lighter include:

* Free upgrades for life – new features will constantly be created for the Virtual Concert Lighters
* Fully customizable with a choice of 24 full-color official KISS lighter cases.
* Unique scrolling text marquee
* Realistic flame sways and moves as you move your hand
* Dynamic sound effects and musical riffs

Launching in May 2009 in time for the mega-band’s 35th anniversary world tour (seriously?!), the application will cost .99 and be available in the iTunes store. It was designed by Spark of Blue, a tech company that specializes in bite-size games and entertainment for smartphones and other internet-connected devices

Look for virtual concert lighter for The Who, Poison, and Lil Wayne later this summer.
