Heh. In fact, we now have a name. Look out for The Dirty Allisons - (Caravan Ray - Vocals / guitar Johnny Cashpoint - Guitar / Backing vocals A Bebop a Rebop - Bass / Backing Vocals &, almost certainly, Furry Pedro - Keys / Backing Vocals)

Sober, could you tell me where exactly I linked my soundclick page? Since you were indirectly accusing me of such. I said I had a page, I never linked it. So your arguement is moot.

And Denyer, not a chance. You'd just get all your buddies to vote for you and that's not a true contest.

Just get off the topic of Rone Rivendale, it's not like I've submitted a song in like a month now. It's retarded to keep flaming me over and over again. I was tryin to take the high road for the longest time but it's old now.

Well, you sure never shut the hell up about it.

My argument is not moot. My argument is that your music is awful, and placing 70th in a race against a thousand runners who have no legs is not something to brag about.

My argument is that you are socially repulsive, and having the company of a bigoted teenage australian is preferrable to you.

Your best plan of action from here is: take a breather. Get better at music. Collect yourself. Prepare yourself mentally for harsh criticism when you submit stale looped crap, or even if you submit something great. Someone will tear it apart no matter what, no matter who you are.

If you cannot deal with that, then you absolutely should leave.

Mr. Lostman is in for Kim Deal with BJam on kim deal backing vocal duty. Brush up on your pixies trivia if you want to get it all.

I'm in for Kim Deal

If I record it tonight, I will be in for Kim Deal. If not, then I will not be in for Kim Deal.

ETA: 1am. I will probably not be in for Kim Deal. I'll do it as part of my AAW WTF though, so eh, whatever.

The Anchors · Post by **The Anchors** » Mon Jun 26, 2006 9:43 pm

Oh yeah, The Anchors are also in for Kim Deal.

I have no place in this debate (if you can call it that), I just thought this was worth emphasising

basically don't stop doing it, no matter how bad (or not) you are.

If the winds are with us I shall be sailing with the Dirty Allisons this week.

If not, The Kids are in for the Kim Deal fight anyway. Possibly splitting the Furry vote, but so be it, I really like both of the tracks I'm involved in.

I am in for Jesus on the Intercom. Did it up in 3 hours yesterday, with the goal of doubling the bass with an acoustic guitar, all single note lines. I ended up dessing the piss outta the acoustic guitar (just in the heavy parts) so that it'd be there to kinda solidify the metallic tone of a picked bass, but not be squeaky.

Wait is this the wrong thread? I couldn't find another prefight thread. Fukit.

You in the right place botox....er... I mean boltoph. I'll be fightin' in the ring this match along side you with Jesus on the Intercom. Which is unfortunatle for me since you typically have powerful entries. Curse it. Well, at least my Jesus is spanish. Maybe that'll help.

I got nothing this week. Hopefully the next set of titles will be a bit more conservative with their proper nouns.

Well, my entry was written and fully recorded in three hours, is really cheesy-metal/ballad style, PLUS I had dental surgery that morning and I couldn't move my numb lower jaw when I sang...so I sound a bit mentally impaired. Or vocally impaired, rather...so don't curse it too much...it's already cursed.

I don't expect anyone will dig my Jesus that much, but it makes me laugh!

There is a place where my love alone can reach me
Only in winter my heart is an offering to him

Taking my hand you have shown me the secrets of life
And I wonder how long - can this last for all time?

I will always remember the day
You loved me and then turned away

Slowly we walked down the sands towards the beach you held my hand
The last time that I saw my love so unsure
Along Cable Beach

Pebbles there are many
Sands are grey and rust is on the rails
Tears of silver line my eyes
Along the Cable Beach

Time was never wasted
Silver coals like tears upon the shore
My love lies waiting
Along the Cable Beach

Placing the circle the wreath settles firm upon my head
Just a symbol; provision of comfort for the dead

Once discarded its purpose to bind my spirit now
Small protection the haunting will find a way somehow

I pray for a happier day
A bright future born of decay

Pebbles there are many
Sands are grey and rust is on the rails
Tears of silver line my eyes
Along the Cable Beach

Time was never wasted
Silver coals like tears upon the shore
My love lies waiting
Along the Cable Beach

Cool Lyrics. And I'm glad you're not fighting with me this time. My song's about a lame school dance and a kid named Jesus (pronounced Hey Suess) takin' over the D.J.'s booth. I'd post lyrics too... but I'm sure you'll understand it all in the mix.

Tex Beaumont is not a teenager. When will the flame war end?!
