I'd love to hear some Old Genesis covered. Maybe some Crimson off of Discipline. Oooh *shivers* I have a soft spot for the prog.

Wouldn't a SF cover of the whole Lamb album be cool? Did I already miss this?

Is this fight still in progress? Or are the songs just not up in this section ... I really want to hear Leaf's YYZ ... I've been told he's a wicked drummer.

No the idea just kind of stalled, but that doesn't mean some motivated individual couldn't try and get it rolling again.

And Lead is an awesome drummer.

Sheez I can't even edit it now because your joke won't be funny if I do.

Sorry LeaF, I usually catch my typo's.

I still have better average for spelling correctly than Leaf does.

And what's wrong with typo? The apostrophe?

Actually finished a song for this sidefight last year.

Long Distance Runaround

If the fight is revived, I'll probably do another one.

I'm diggin' this so much, Bolio. It's amazing. Those drums at the beginning of the song, and really throughout, are just great, and I love that slap bass like 50 seconds in. And your voice really suits this song. The whole thing has a great authentic early-synthesizery kind of sound to it. Fantastic.

Thanks. Isn't me singing, a friend Jim in Seattle (not to be confused with Jim of Seattle.) I delegate my vocals as much as possible.

I just found this page again, and it's almost inspired me to do a Genesis cover. I've really been digging those guys lately. Don't know if I'll have the time though. Getting a job sucks.
