i'm having difficulty playing the opening of 'Cracklin' Rose' on my opto-Theremin...maybe feedback guitar instead?

also, every time i sing "you got the wayyy to maaake meeh happeh" i start snickering.

Downside? Heresy! I can't wait to hear Blue Jeans. I love that tune.


I found a basic perc loop for Play Me yesterday while I was waiting for a session. Let's see how this goes...

Is this guy the William Shatner of American music, or what?

If you mean the Captain Friggin' Kirk of American Music, yes. Yes he is.

I might be able to host mp3's of the stuff. I don't know if we want to go with 16/44.1 files or if everyone would be satisfied to just have the mp3's available.

Thoughts?

FWIW, Neil Diamond will be the featured mentor on American Idol next tuesday ... for those of you who can stomach that show ... (I shamelessly watch every week)

Andrew Lloyd Weber was on this past week and it was awesome. He has some very interesting behavioral tics.

So is this thing happening or what? Is there a list of taken songs? I want in. Maybe "Heartlight."

No, Shilo

No, Girl, You'll be a woman soon

No, Do It

I'll admit...I ocassionally catch it, and yes, he's got some extraordinarly weird tics happening. I thought he was gonna jump out of his skin.

If this thing actually happens, I'll take Brother Love's. I hope there is a thread with the details.

I'd love to see this thing happen. My May 1 proposed deadline is coming to bite me in the rear... I'm still shooting for it, but my instruments are in transition. I could still pull off a vox/acoustic deal, though.

Like I said before I could probably host mp3's. I don't have the bandwidth or server space to deal with uncompressed files.

How about this:

We'll have a window of submission (good band name). Open to all. From May 1 through May 14. After that, I'll upload all the files to a central page for public perusal/snickering.

Sound Ok?


BTW-- I'm glad I missed the Andrew Lloyd Weber thing. Not a fan. Andrew Lloyd Weber is the Wal-Mart of the rock opera.

You should probably just take the wheel and tell us that's the timeline.

TOMBers...America is yours if you want it. It's simply too excellent for me to attempt at this point in my musical life.

Thanks, mikenyc for taking the bull by the horns. This comp will happen!

Should we be sending 24-bit wavs to that sendspace account, or do you want us to take care of the mp3-ing of the files ourselves?
