I think it would be fun, after the whole thing is over, to post the lists so people could see what you wanted them to cover, and maybe we'd get more hxaro covers out of it!
-bill
I'll definitley be doing that. There are quite a few on my list i'd really like to hear
OK - while we're waiting for the slackers to get their songs in - here is the list I sent Ken, if anyone else wants to know what I selected for them - and to perhaps have a crack... (I've taken them out of order of preference and changed to alphabetical order - suffice to say, hearing Wreckdom do a version of my "Pink Skirt" was definitely not last on my list)

http://songfight.net/forums/viewtopic.php?p=71052#71052

Please post your wish lists - as Bill said earlier - it may generate some hxaro covers

I don't know if mine's up. Is this the page? - http://www.songfight.net/coverfight/old/results15.htm or is it somewhere else? If it is, I'll resend my cover.

You have reached the deadline. I will probably take a week to get the songs up, so those of you slacking have a little extra time. Keep those PMs coming!

Good work all!!!

Hey Folks,

Entries are still coming in. I'm talking to JB about how to get it on the official coverfight page. Songs will be up soon.

Ken


PS. As for myself, I've been really busy getting started on the next Parker Street Cinema record. Drums were tracked last weekend, and they sound great.

Mine is 90 to 95% done. I could send in what I got now, but I'm thinking it needs just a little more seasoning. I would say this would be done and Ken would have the link no problem tonight but in the "Life comes at you fast" department, my daughter's car is crapping out on her and my brother who works at a car dealership has one that might work out as a replacement. Of course because it's an insider deal, we need to move fast and I'm not sure how long that translates into taking as far as time this evening.

Most likely tomorrow for me. OH, and cool toy F.P.

Mine's gonna be late-late. School and life at the moment is just hectic as hell, and getting good grades/studying for SATs is way more important than SongFight at the moment. I'll work on it during Thanksgiving hopefully. Sorry in advance to the person I'm covering.

Mine's in too. I recorded it in two takes, and mixed it via laptop on an Amtrak train. I think it shows in my final mix. But I don't like to overthink these things, so I've signed off on it and I've moved on.

Primitive Screwheads' entry is in. Hope it burns the recipient's brain into a silly mush, heh. With love, of course.

Hi Folks,

Finally making some progress on getting the songs up. It looks like we have about 2/3 done. I'm worried that if I post the whole list it will ruin the suprise for some folks. What do you think?
