That was liquid crack for the heart. That was absolutely beautiful. Kudos, Dre!

That is quite possibly the best thing I've ever seen, ever. Dre, you are my hero.

Man. Awesome. Yes.

Sober Irishman has now completed his theme song (WeaselSlayer's), and is thus freed from his debt.

It's up at the site: http://www.glitterandtwang.org/songs/ts.html

Thanks for pimping your theme for me yet again Fluffy. I still enjoy playing it when I am feeling in a world mayhem mischief mood :-)

Jimmy, that is some serious musical groove for the Weaselslayer. Kudos my man!!!!

Dre.

Friggin' wow! That was totally awesome.

So awesome, it's got me pumped to finish your tune, which is better than halfway done. I think the main problem is I feel way ill-equipped to write a song about someone I don't know.

I'd make a cool video too if I knew how. The song will have to do. When? Hopefully end of the week coming. I'll do my best.

Great work man!!!

Yes, the difficulty, but somehow we managed :)
The video was very cool. Extraspecialbonuspoints.

Well Bill, it'll come when it comes. You're clearly way more in touch with your muse than I. And good for you. But I'm not gonna put out sub-par (imo) work. When it's good, I'll put it out. Dre, you rule and I'm sorry for being late, but it is coming. Marcus, you rock for organizing this. :D

Johnny, you're a dork.

Hip cola - a multiple choice for you

Answer a) I know you are, what am I?

Answer b) Yeah, I'm a dork who did a themesong. What does that make Tonetripper?

Answer c) I am only teasing. I have already stated a couple of pages back that i don't expect a themesong, thus releasing any Canadians from cashpoint-related commitments. But if you will leave yourselves open for some teasing, then don't be offended if I jump at the chance.

(CLUE: The correct answer is c)

Johnny: Just listen to the one I did for you last time! (and on time at that)

And I also am without themesong, but I really don't care. I'll just listen to the one Ken did for me last time.

The Sausage Boy Themesong should be finished this week. The release has been timed as to not interfere with the chart success of BEP's "My Humps".

Open Season?
Doesn't that involve lotsa guns, dead moose and tall stories around campfires about the songs that got away?
