Cool, I'll have to check that out. Lovecraft is probably my favorite writer overall, along with Algernon Blackwood, C.M. Eddy, and, of course, that creepy looking guy in my avatar.

Wow, do YOU ever not know Hoblit very well...

My mom had one of those Bontempi or whatever organ things which I would play around on at about age 5 or 6. I taught myself 'Mary Had A Little Lamb'. Played french horn in grade 5 band. Decided at about that time that I wanted to play guitar, mainly because of Black Sabbath and Cheap Trick and AC/DC...

Hopefully, this will not cause too much aural pain. She Said, She Said

Glenn: I actually like your version of 'Nobody Told Me' better than the original. (And I like the original quite a bit)

BTW, I know it's well past its due date, but I almost have a cover of 'She Said She Said' done. Should I finish it for this?

Fodroy: I am ashamed to admit I know what the clip in your avatar is from.

I have the house to meself this weekend, I think I might do 'Happiness Is A Warm Gun'. Gotta test out my new recording rig and all.

[edit] Or maybe not.

HAHAHAAA AHAHAHAHAHA!!!! HAHAHA AHAHAHAHAHHHAHAHAHAHAH@!!!!! OMGLOLWTFLOLBBQ!>!??!*#&*( Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you, probably the worst cover of an ABBA song ever recorded . Yngwie Malmsteen covers "Gimmie! Gimmie! Gimmie!" except the singer changes the words to " Your ...

For the working out of covers, and not for the ripping off of well-desrved money for the mighty Abba empire ... http://www.johnnycashpoint.com/abba HA! pwn3ed Thanks, I needed those. Also, I'm on the fence as to which song I wanna do. I might change my mind and do Waterloo instead... unless someone...

Also, has anyone called 'Angel Eyes' yet, and if not, why?

It's yours, dude.

Agreed, bjam, plus the GoM is going on too, so Valentine's day would be perfect. Plus, it's my birthday the next day, so it would be like an internet bday present to listen to a bunch of ABBA covers. And stuff.

In, definitely. I take dibs on 'SOS', unless brad wants to do that one, in which case, I'll do 'Knowing Me, Knowing You'

HOLY CRAP

i'm looking for opinions on the mix in general. drums too thin? i was trying for a more natural drum sound than i usually get. the guitars also sound a little unbalanced in this mix - maybe a hair too bassy. Who the hell listens to drums, anyway? :twisted: This song is fucking awesome, BTW. Needs s...

Ken eats kittens?!

THAT IS FREAKING AWESOME. I AM DEFINITELY GOING TO VOTE FOR KEN.

Okay, I guess I'm in then, and my four choices are:

1) Shells by Gandharvas
2) Blown Wide Open by Big Wreck
3) Angels by The Tea Party
4) Giant by Matthew Good Band

Pretty good choices, I think, and THEY'RE ALL CANADIAN. SUCKERS.

Any objection to me being in this one? I promise, I won't be 10 months late this time.

it sounds like good jon eric

Oh man, that was just a LOW BLOW.

Here is your song, about 10 months late: Don't Believe A Word

I hope you like it. I feel much better now. This has sort of been grating away at my conscious for a while now.

I was already quite familiar with the Melvins tune (I love the Melvins) and, uh, yeah, I've watched my share of Benny Hill The other one, didn't like it.

You can't cover the Melvins. It's just not done. So Thin Lizzy it was.
