Congratulations! It looks really cool to see your name on the bottom of a film poster, it's like OMG! I know who that is!
That looks like an interesting film too, I wish the trailer worked on my pc :(

Hey there, This sounds fun. How about a Planet Songfight? For example http://planet.gnome.org/ or http://planetkde.org/ After all, a few songfighters have their own blogs. I think that's all that's required. Judging from these other planets, only about 20% of the posts are on-topic, but they're stil...

I think it's really cool, apart from that the word 'fight' is harder to read.
(edit) No I don't. I think it's awesome.

Wages: I like your flexibility-based approach. Would that leave open the possibility that we could do 5 collabs in 5 weeks, if it turned out that everyone's schedule fit it? I like the idea of the slightly longer pre-fight period each week. Would it be set up so that we could say 'hang on, this week...

Okay, I thought a bit more about it, and have a suggestion with more details. Here's my suggestion for a Collab-o-rama which is designed to encourage people's collab skills , make cool music, new friends and so on. It takes place over five weeks, with 6 participants, A to F. Title each week. They ar...

I like the idea... ish. 1) I'm at the stage in my music where quantity and quality aren't exclusive. The more I make, the better I will get. 2) Collaborations can be fun, but they are tricky in a technical sense, and certainly take more time. So, following that logic, 3) Practicing collaborating sho...

For clicky books you can actually read, or download and print nothing beats the baen free library and webscriptions. I just got started on Christopher Anvil who reminds me a little of the foundation series. Previously I have been addicted to Eric Flint's 1632 series . Which contains a helluva lot of...

I had a PG58, but am now using a 'superlux phantom power required: 9 to 52 VDC" which I've assumed is a condensor. It came with an acoustic drum mic set for about £150, and I've used the other mics for brass and electric guitar. If it's not too off topic to ask: At what point do/did you guys up...

I don't suppose you have a recording of that available? I would be very interested to hear your musical interpretation of the words.

Your poem is really interesting and powerful. I like the contrasts between beauty and decay, creation and entropy.

You know, one of the best parts of songfighting is being able to improve and seeing other people improve too. If you want to come with a closed mind, hate an entire decade's worth of music and troll, it doesn't suggest you're going to grow much, musically. BLT, JimTyrell LoO and Veg's opinions matte...

Would like to hear

AC DC - Thunderstruck
Catatonia - Road Rage
Randy Newman - Political Science
Placebo - Special Needs

Especially if they turn out very different to the originals.
