As everyone knows, my skills lie (sic) in my voice, so I can't in good conscious agree to GOM, but if someone needs a singer for a song, message me and I'll be HAPPY to sing to the music you can put together. :) I don't even care if it a Bjork song (could be really fun!).

Disaster strikes! I just moved and I tried putting the songs online before leaving my old computer behind, but the files got corrupted somehow... so I don't have all the songs I requested. I will upload what I can scrounge up and then maybe replace the songs that I don't have. I apologize deeply for being such a dweeb. In general and on this specific occasion.

If you or anyone needs certain songs, message me. I might be able to help.

Just a thought regarding the $100 twist.

Last year, Pumpkin Buzzard covered all four of my requests. If a person was to cover multiple songs from a person's list, would that be an unfair advantage as far as the $100 first prize?

ROCK!

In my opinion, to the contrary. I think it would be a FAIR (i.e. earned) advantage.

Send them my way, if you like. I will get them online for you. I actually own "Am I Inside", and I also think it's a mighty fine selection.

ROCK!

Aw crap! I've been living in work hell and have been checking the boards sporadically at best. Is it REALLY too late to get in on this action?

If the GOM Gods will it to be so, I'd like to be IN! (Please please please)

Here's my hasty picks: (I'll attempt to find links later if I'm allowed in)

Pere Ubu: "Heaven"
Built to Spill: "Joyride"
Palace Bros: "New Partner"
Shellac: "The Guy Who Invented Fire"

(Pweeeeeaaseeeee!)

Ah, like a fruitcake. The yearly tradition of the GoM latecomer continues. Worry not, Anti-M. You can be in.......if you can find 2 other souls willing to join the GoM.
