The Song Fight Bulletin Board

In working on the Songfight wiki project, I made something interesting: The Associated Acts List. I took the board names of every person who has posted over 25 times (at the time when I started) and then tried to figure out every band associated with that person. It's not a complete list but I think it's pretty good. I would love input on the list if I left off a band or if I have misinformation. You can check out the list at the link below.

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/55148904/Link%20200.xlsx

Here is my rundown:

irwin solo = Suckweasel
irwin and mikelamb = Kasper
irwin, mikelamb, and "Fusty Nut" = The Nutwalls
irwin, mikelamb, and guest singer (not on boards) = The Narcaloungers

I've participated to varying degrees in a few of the irc-based collaborations, but the above is the regular stuff. And the Orange Collective.

Wow. Impressive

You have things I was in that even I didn't remember.

However, I did record once (and possibly again) as The NATIONAL FRONTBOTTOM

You missed a couple of appearances with Jon Eric and Friends...

So, just song fight proper? Anti-M, Steve Durand and I did a Blondie cover.
edit: oh, Frankie and I did a Lou Reed cover.

edit: OH, Spud, Paco and I did Rattlesnake....baby! it's there.

Too bad writing credits aren't acknowledged. You've written several of mine, Niv.

NIv,

I think that's a pretty accurate list as far as I'm concerned - I am nothing to do with "Japantown Three", mind, and I also wrote the lyric / tune for $tueym (can't remember the song title off the top of my head). There may be others, but that's everything I can remember off the top of my head.

There is a rumor that both Brainsocket and Juan Carlos de la Cueva Castianeda Oliveros are actually Frankie Big Face. Lies I tell you--LIES!

And also Puffy C And The Southern Baptist Pig Face Choir. That one may be true.

@Frankie- I was trying to remember who was Juan Carlos! Thanks for the extra info.

@J$- Oops, Japantown 3 should be Jack. (That's Jack, Blue and Future Boy). I'll $teuym to your list

@BLT- I included some writing credits on the list (for instance, I have Berkeley Social Scene on my list since I've written 6 songs with the band). As long as it's a significant amount of work together, I'll include a writing credit. (You'll find BLT & Paco on my list as well)

@Spud- Thanks. There are some big collaborations (such as Jon Eric & Friends, W2 and the Temps, Songfight Orchaestra) that I've yet to research into.

This is pretty cool. I'd like to try to import this data into the jukebox if that's OK. I probably won't get around to it till the weekend though.

Go for it Sam!

If anyone has a good idea on how we can import this into the Songfight wiki as well, I am all ears.

Not sure how you generated the list of artists, but I also played bass on the IRCBFF track "Back from Juvie."

Edit: Found IRCBFF as "IRC BFF"

I'm just cruising through the list to see if I catch anything

1. Blue Lang is also associated with Ken's sonofsupercar 'n stuff or whatever we called that collab.

2. futureboy is 1/3 of the Cutie Pies.

3. I'm not sure if this is giving away anything, but Shark Tornado is made up of a couple of fairly well-known songfighters.

4. glennny is also in Yardley Social Scene.

5. I am also in the Ken's Chocobear and Spud Case band. (Ken, Glenn Case, Rachael Layne, Spud together for Obey All the Laws)

6. I seem to have double credit for Cutie Pies and no credit for the Mosswoodians.

7. I am also part of Kitten Tikka Masala (w/ obscurity), Bravo Bros., and Two From 14,

8. Lunkhead is Otaglia! (Starfinger as well, but I guess it wasn't submitted). (I also wrote some of their lyrics)

9. Seamus is part of the Orange Collective.

10. what about my good friend Evil-E? Has he not posted to the boards?

11. I know Ryan from BSS posts occasionally. He is also part of the Mosswoodians and Location Location Location.

Thanks Ken!

1. Don't know why I missed that.
2. Oops, I put down Plat instead of Future Boy. Mixed up Platkenybjam with The Cutie Pies.
4. Just a miss. I'll fix that.
5. Thanks, I wasn't sure of all the members for that one.
6. Will put that in.
7. Who else was in Bravo Bros and 2 from 14?
8. How did I leave off Lunkhead from Otalgia? I love that song.
9. I didn't list most of the Orange Collective yet.
10. Less than 25 posts.
11. Less than 25 posts.

No one who posted more than 25 times if at all.

Bravo Brad is the other half of Bravo Bros. and Jeff from 2 from 14 I don't think ever posted.

Ken

I also drummed for Billy and the Psychotics a couple of times until they pulled a Syd Barrett and stopped picking me up for the gigs.

It would be fun if someone could use this info to make a site similar to this one for songfight: http://musicroutes.com/

BLT drives the van.

Just because I want to have more associations on record than J$, here are a few more:

1. I am also associated with Chewbacca Bra (with Jon Eric and Drew Tetz), Dreamy Mo and the Commoners (I think), Freedom Fries (with ryan), and Team Seahorse (with Lunkhead, erin, Glenn Case, Rachael Layne, and ADDmusic).

2. Electro Martyr is martyr.

Also was - Elephant Finger Et Le Casio Ensemble Contemporain de Paris (Occupy Yr Heart, I believe.)
and with Andy Balham, Black Russian Futurists (Threatening to Some) & Ca$ham (Back From Juvie)
And with CR and Spud, Johnny & The Rays (Seven Days)

Ah the race is back on, Ken

Yeah I'm also in

Yardley social scene
BLT featuring E-Bow Phillips

Because Ken always wants to stop at 7-11 for a frozen burrito and a cherry slurrpy. I can deal with the cherry garlic burps, but the microwave burrito farts burned my eyes and it impaired my vision.
