Wow, I'm loving the acoustic stuff from tonight. I might have a hard time not pulling out the banjo when I get home from work tomorrow. Marcus - The banjo is a great complement to your voice. This is quite a lovely song. Puce - This one is fun. I love the vocal and the harmonies and doubled vocals a...

My lyrics never did show up. I'll be back to try again next Tuesday if it's still on (not home Monday evenings).

Way too late for the deadline, but here's my Can I Still Be an Astronaut?. I got home a little bit late, but the first attempt with electrics and such was a trainwreck in the making. So, I bailed and came back to do the acoustic guitar and vocal version.

A bit too late for yesterday's skirmish, but here's a quick take of my Interpret This Dream . I didn't even have the lyrics ready by the time the deadline hit, but figured I might as well do a quick recording once I finished the initial song arrangement last night. Time permitting, I will try to jum...

I got rid of my 2.0 a few years ago and never tried tweeking much with high gain or rock tones. So, I am not particularly helpful at providing details for that style.

I was thinking you could enlist Spud to sing ".....I am fifty, going on fifty-one" , to Bjam's ".....I am sixteen, going on seventeen" . That wouldn't sound creepy at all. Or just get each Songfight guy to record a line to really hit home the creepy factor. "I am *jumble of...

This one would work; I haven't had a chance to hunt down the others yet. And it seems like a good fit for you, given that the singer Dan Seals went on to great success on the country charts, in the late 80s. I don't know how I missed that...I thought he somehow looked familiar. I had his '87 "...

We started working on a "studio" (aka my dining room) version of the song on Sunday evening before my sister left town the next day. So, in lieu of Saturday's live fight version, The BeWells are in with a new recorded entry.

Is there any way Chris de Burgh's "The Lady In Red" fits into this category? If so, count me in as I've wanted to cover that for years for some strange reason. Otherwise, I will have to do some digging around as I do find the idea intriguing.

While getting everything together I had some amplification questions: 1. I will go ahead and bring the Yamaha S90 to ensure there is something with a piano feel. Will there be a keyboard amp or are house monitors sufficient? If needed I can bring along a Roland KC-300. 2. Is there need for a Telecas...

Ah, good point...might as well avoid confusion over orientation (and the guitar is a Martin). I will try going with G&G&G if that's still open.
