Usually the guest has to do vocals but there is no mention this time of what the guest is supposed to do. Is that on purpose or is that an accidental omission?

Just impress us with your guest.

I got "The Further Adventures of Cyclops and Phoenix" issues #3 and 4. (For you Xmen '97 watchers out there, this is next season's plot for Scott and Jean). And I picked up the cover of Led Zeppelin II to hang on the wall.

That's what it looks like. I would hate to eliminate someone on a misunderstanding but that may be the case. I hope it isn't.

1 judge may hate soft rock, another might be anti uke, it's just part of the luck factor. That's one thing I talked with the other judges about. Genre bias is a tough thing. My suggestion to the judges was to judge how they would want to be judged. And no one would want to be judged poorly just bec...

The votes are in and the winner of Round Zero is Max Bombast!

Hey folks,
Scores are gonna be a little late this time again. One can't control when they have to go to the ER.

A gentle reminder from the judges- id3 tags.

Please note: You don't need to couple every instrument you use, just one acoustic/ electric pairing. If you don't have the acoustic/electric version of your instrument of choice, get creative. Samples would work. Virtual instruments probably. Make a convincing argument. This is musical Taskmaster so...

The participants then have one week in which to creste a song from those prompts. Then this year's judging panel will listen to the songs and r...

As we approach May and the oncoming Nur Ein, I find myself in a pickle- we need judges. Anyone interested in taking on the task?

ST22r2 Marco! Polo! SHADOW- LW/RG- Dead by December Cool drums, cool riffs! I’m rockin' to this song. I’m dying to strap a bass on and play along. Why no bass? I think the guitar could be dirtier. The punchiness of the guitar in the verses is really cool and effective. I hope this makes the set in ...

We are 1/10th of the way to 1K. Let's keep Grand Parade open until we reach our goals!*

Apparently the finalists also get to vote in the finals? Is that true? I did not think so, so we didn't even think about it. Are we the ones who abstained, without even realizing it?
