Re: SpinTunes 4: Sign Ups

Among the Songfighters who've participated in Spintunes are DJ Ranger Den, Noah McLaughlin, both Durand brothers, and myself. Spintown was actively posting on the Songfight boards when he came up with the idea, which was inspired by Nur Ein. Songfighters have also been judges of the competition, su...

Re: SpinTunes 4: Sign Ups

If SongFighters enjoy & compete in it...it has something to do with SongFight.

Re: SpinTunes 4: Sign Ups

Yeah it'll overlap with FAWM, but anything you write for SpinTunes can also be used for FAWM. No real conflict there. Same with Song Fight depending on the challenges we come up with this time.

The time has come for another go around. I updated the rules, made a draft of the schedule, and posted the sign up info. Hope to see many of you in round 1.

The badness & length put it right up there on the list of worst I've heard.

Re: the last review of a song etc. (the last afternoon revie

Yeah, but to be fair, that way part of your reviews boils down to "by the way I care about people using the title. Hey Guy A, you didn't use the title. Hey Guy B, you didn't use the title. [...]" No shit, sherlock! True, but if I'm going to knock someone shouldn't I tell them why even if ...

I said that in my own review Spud. The title thing is a personal preference. I've actually said that in a number of my past reviews.

Re: the last review of a song etc. (the last afternoon revie

I'm finally caught up with reviews here...which means I did actually vote for the first time in awhile. Hated this title...and hated that most people didn't actually use it in the song (even though I know you don't have to). http://spintown79.blogspot.com/2011/11/song-fight-review-last-afternoon-of....

Re: Sammy Kablam (Reviews: Threatening to Some)

So once again Spin you're judging a song on lyrics, with no mention of beat, melody, structure, or performance. Did we rock and shock you like Loudness? Did we bore you to tears like Belle and Sebastian? Lyrics are usually the most important part of a song to me...so yeah...if I dislike the lyrics ...

He listened to twenty seconds, and says it's 'more of the same'? Well, it's another Song Fight review, so...duh? Besides, his last comment said he listened to 22 seconds; now he says he listened to 20 seconds. So, his feedback is 'more of the same', so that renders his argument impotent, correct? T...
