Re: SOMESONGS - ROUND THREE

Quick cultural question: I refer to "laughing clowns" in my song - which I assumed to be a universally ubiquitous carnival/side show/agricultural show type game - but a look at Google makes me think I assumed wrong and they may just be an antipodean thing? Are laughing clowns common in the...

I won't question the lyric much, except to ask what does the metaphor "It slips away, like /whispers lost in the break of day" actually mean? It’s not a metaphor. It’s a simile https://www.grammarly.com/blog/literary-devices/whats-the-difference-between-a-simile-and-a-metaphor/ My bad. Ap...

Good to have you on board Mr Orange. As a fellow ginger- I also recall wearing that cruel moniker from the other boys in the school dressing sheds. All power to you for owning it.

Now I think of it. I did feel a bit seedy when I woke up this morning. Must be the covid.
Surely wasn't the approximately 30 beers and 5 glasses of wine you'd had the previous evening,
Yeah. The covie never stood a chance.

Jumping on plane tomorrow- do we have a local chat group or something?

Oh, also it looks like I'm going to need a bass player due to circumstances, and I could still use a drummer as well.
I could maybe do bass if you make it simple for me?

Re: Song Fight! Live 2024 Mountains and Melodies

Ok - I may be getting ahead of myself (a 20 hour flight notwithstanding) - but I land at Denver at 9:30ish on a Wednesday night - and, there is a chance that the first thing I will want to do is sing karaoke. This appears to be the closest to my accommodation: https://millersandrossi.com/denver-rino...

Sounds like a party.
It does! And I just learned from Leah’s email that marijuana is legal in Colorado!! I didn’t know that!!

But I can’t have any because I am not a citizen. (I’m not a fan anyway - so that is all good). But - sounds like a party state!!!!

Wow. I think I can speak on behalf on all attendees (some who may have a touch of the OCD) - there is some top level organisation going on here in some very reliable looking hands. Much appreciated.

Good job!!

Looking forward to the trip!

Re: Song Fight! Live 2024 Musicians Exchange

If I’m really going to play the Lunkhead set I’ve been thinking I’m going to play, I need a second guitar player, who can either play lead or rhythm. Ideally it’d be somebody who maybe doesn’t have a ton of sets on their plate already. The songs are not massively complex but they’re not super simpl...

I could probably make my garage available. Is your garage air conditioned? It is not. Also, I have been rehearsing there a bit, and we probably want to minimize it for the neighbors' sake.

I plan on playing guy and guitar. But I have one song where a backing vocalist may be good. And another where a team of random percussionists may help.
