SFUK1 had five bands and lasted 3 hours. SFUK2 looks like it might last a day, with this level of interest.
How many bands played at the Austin gig?

OK, I am so up for doing this again.
i think February 19th-20th isn't particularly floating people's boats, and I have December (christmas) and January (work and oh, my christ, my birthday) commitments that might preclude my full attention to organising - so what about March? The weather is nicer, it gives me a bit more time to find a venue, and might give American homies more time to organise flights etc If people really want to do it in february, we can, but I think i can put together a shinier event in the Spring proper.
Opinons? Where is my cohort (and current favourite straight bloke) Mr Balham when we need him?

I'm here, just about recovered from falling of a month on the wagon. Why did I drink the Broadside? Why? Why?j$ wrote:Where is my cohort Mr Balham when we need him?
As for the SFL 2005, I don't have any strong preference date-wise, though I think it would be rather spiffing if we could host the first International SongFight. As mentioned with regards to the previous one, I can put up a few people to keep the costs down for itinerent SFs.
On the music front I'd be more than happy to pimp my rhythm guitar services, though how many songs I can remember may be a limiting factor.

Where are photos from the last event! I look at the SongFight! gallery page each week, eagerly anticipating some great pictures to print out and stick around my desk to impress female colleagues with, yet I am constantly disappointed. I know this is not strictly concerned with SongFight 2005 but I thought it was more likely get noticed in this particular thread.
That is all.

Just thought I'd bring this to the top again to mention that I've managed to cram all the performances from the 2004 gig onto one jam-packed DVD. If anyone wants one then, numbers within reason, I'll burn off a copy, print the inserts and post it fully cased-up to you. Thanks to Kapitano for providing the footage I finally managed to get to DVD.
Look forward to a bigger and better one in 2005!

I'm with jack shite and co. - if the date was set to perhaps April, May, June, or July for this then I might be able to attend - I've been wanting to go back to London visit my old stomping grounds (Kingston-u-T in tha hizza!).
Please also read my post in the Minnesota songfight about creating a web page and a poster for your event (the one you guys created for your last songfight was spectacular) that I can link to from the songfight events page I am creating. This request applies to you guys as well...

Right then, two things.
1. SONGFIGHT UK DVDS ARE AVAILABLE In fact I hold one in my hand as I type. Looks damn fine. Do you want one? Have you PMed mailing address to either Andy Balham or myself?
For the time being, depending on demand, we will send one (1) copy to anyone who asks for it, FREE OF CHARGE. No cost to you, not even postage. They are regionless (right, Andy?) so they will play on American DVDs just as well as British ones. Just let us know, first come, first served, until we run out. 28 songs, just under 2 hours of British RAWK, and some 'classic' compering by me.
2. SONGFIGHT UK LIVE 2005 After a high-powered down the pub brainstorming session last night, this will definitely be taking place. We've decided to move it back to mid-April, so that a) Americans are more likely to come and b) to give me time to actually do something about booking a venue. More information will follow.
Too much bold ....

A public thank you
YAY!
Just a wee bit of public praise for Andy Balham's weeks of slaving over a hot computer and his production of the 2004 SF live DVD.
It arrived this morning.
Ta mate.
