OK -- I'll start. Remember: there are no bad ideas.

Let's see... Lurker... eyes... hidden... camouflage... green and brown... I knew a dog named Tripod that had one green and one brown eye, so...

And did I mention the nerve damage?

Ow ow ow ow ow. I'm doing a guitar-based song and it's really out of my wheelhouse. Still prodding at it, though.

Ive seriously have Sunday night probably starting at 9pm actually probably 930-10 as a start time for this next song. I am really determined to stay in the mix so good or bad I am really going to try to get one in----and write a song Sunday night, ha.

That being said----to me----that title is screaming to be a screaming messy punk song.

This is happening.

My song is so out of the ordinary for me that I'm considering entering under a different name.

UPDATE: Submitted. Did not use different name.

Mine is in, and it....is....odd. Lyrics are terrible. Started writing it at 1030 pm, and it is 1222 am right now. My song is completely alien to me, I cant tell if it is good or crap.

This is 3 in a row!!!

If you find yourself in a similar predicament anytime in the future, feel free to post a request in the Collaborations subforum. There are probably a lot of people who could lay down a bass and/or drum track for you if you provide what you have so far and a little bit of time. :-)

I'm always up for doing a bass line. Can't do slapping, but am game for most anything else.
