I don't think it was discussed, but I plan on adding a poll to the Cure Fight! page once I post them.

I can keep the poll open as long as I like. Maybe a month. And I think I'll set it so you can pick more than one.

The URL is good for a year. The site will stay up at least that long. Maybe next year, we'll do another Cure Fight! and i'll just update it.

looks like grinding halt, since nearly everything else from three imaginary boys don't cry was taken. and everything from all the other albums seems too effing complicated. maybe i'll do something else if i can re-work the arrangement of something into something that works for me. but like. holy crap. you don't realize how fast that song is until you gotta play the drums. eff me.

Oh, umm - not "fire in cairo" - much less interesting, but no one has picked it yet.

Hm. The wife is sick and gone to bed early.

Hope I have enough time to record a guitar solo (and mix and master) after work tomorrow.

I'm sorry, let me rephrase. I am proactively throwing my hat in next year's ring.
So (assuming last Friday in September) I'm estimating somewhere closer to 6,401.5 hours left. Give or take.

I/We weren't able to get any recording done last night, so Lovesong is available to anyone who needs an easy tune.

I so wanted to do "Friday I'm In Love" - but seeing as I am already on one, maybe two, songs in the fight I decided, one, twice, three times a lady and didn't. I might record it anyway and put up a link in the relevant place.

Can't believe nobody went for it.

Everything's recorded. Now I just have to convert this seven minutes of slop into a song.

I should be in sometime this evening, still don't know about the 8pm deadline. If I am late, it should only be by a couple of hours.

that's pretty much what the cure did, right? Or did they turn songs into 7 minutes of slop?

Hmmmm...
