BLT drives the van.

Because Ken always wants to stop at 7-11 for a frozen burrito and a cherry slurrpy. I can deal with the cherry garlic burps, but the microwave burrito farts burned my eyes and it impaired my vision.

Quimby guitar-ed with us too that one time when I said "all of the hat" in the chourus and you had to fix it.

also for one glorious time there was a Minty Handy and DJ Ranger Den collab known as Dandy Hen. We did Threatening to Some. It's a sweet song, I think. It's squeaky singing for me.

You can add both glennny and ken to JB and friends or whatever that was for the They Meet live fight. I think roymond is in the band. The video is on Vimeo I think.

Edit: yep JBB : ken glennny mike lamb roymond and jb

It's listed as "the John Benjamin Band". Since it was a one-time appearance in the JBB (and not listed as a new collaboration), I wouldn't include it.

Pink Pope = Morbid Morgan and myself. You can add it to both of our lists.

Hrm, dropbox is blocked here. Can this thing be put somewhere I can see it?

In addition to Destruction Enterprise with Posyden and my collab with Signboy that you've already listed, I also did 2 SF songs with my friend Rich as Country Martyrs. He isn't even registered in the board so that's probably why. But I wanted to mention it anyway.

Also Posyden submitted a song as Atlantean. I remember this because it was for Brimming With Tears, my 1st official fight as a SF'er and his was my favorite song in the fight.

I'm kinda disappointed that this is revealing things that a lot of people don't know yet, that are still top secret, as far as I'm concerned. But I'm pretty confident that most of these people are not going to examine your document. In any case, I guess that's what I get for having ADHD and not being organized enough to have enough time to register a new e-mail address every time I start a new project, as I used to do back when I had a lucrative-ass part-time job, and didn't pay my own rent.

I'm also not very impressed that you only cataloged five. Those are only the most obvious ones.

Oats' post reminds me - I wrote the lyric for his entry to "A Scary Thing" fight. Never a secret, so his fury will hopefully be abated.

And in case I didn't mention it already, I also wrote lyrics for Bobby Davros ("Via Sunderland" and "Disco Tony"), with A.Balham esq doing the rest (including taking the best joke out of "Via Sunderland" as it happens. I can forgive but I can't forget )

Those are very contradictory statements. It's basically saying I have secrets, I dare you to find them. And find them I will Cobalt Stomach Lithium Institution Raisin Brain Jon Mayor Lord of Oats.

Ok, got access. Quite a thing there. I am assuming you got my list from the songfight page on my site since there were some one-offs in the list. were you purposely skipping sidefights?

Oh and you got Yoko Oh No! (Jack, Dre and me) down under Jack and Dre but not under me.

I thought I got that moved to Johnny In The Corner (as it's clearly a Johnny In The Corner song with a coda by Dre) but if you're listing it, I'd like to be attributed. Ta!

'fluffy' is all-lowercase, as is 'fluffy porcupine'. I think 'entropic pincushion' is supposed to be too. 'Goatfucker' is just one word. Other than that I don't see anything wrong, and can't think of anything missing from my list.

Too bad we don't have the posters from the old board because Patrick Clayton was the other half of Escapegoat, and he was in like a billion bands.

Sparks also used a fuckton of one-off names although the only one that's coming to mind is The Jim Varney All-Stars.

And of course toothpastefordinner Drew hasn't posted here that often but he also had a few dozen bands to his name.

Yeah, my cross-sections are complicated.

Omissions:
I entered once as The Finches ("So Long, Atticus")
I've entered a couple of times as Big Mistake ("A Variation on Two," "Bad Attraction")
I played in the IRC All-Stars once ("Need Stilts"), and in the IRC BFFs at least once ("Back from Juvie," though I think that may have been the only time).
I was the principle songwriter and lead singer for Biggie Shite and the Songfight Youth Choir's "Need Stilts"
Coma was my collaboration with Evermind ("Gonna Be Your Man").
I entered once as Jon of New Orleans, which was a collaboration with Jim of Seattle ("Brown Boxes").
There's an entry credited to Jon Eric feat. Eddiebangs ("House In My Head").
Pun in Tend was my collaboration with Freudian Slip ("Gallows Hill").
Shasta was my collaboration with Soda ("Field Day")
I played the piano in Dr. Atkins' 100% Natural Good-Time Family-Band Solution. ("Credible Threat")
Generic Sp00ns was my collaboration with @eclictic Sp00ns ("Sold Out")


Corrections:
You left a "b" out of the "Babble" in Transpacific Babble Brigade. (In case you didn't know, the other members of the Transpacific Babble Brigade were BLT and Caravan Ray.)
I don't know if I was ever in a Suave Noise Youth track, except for that one time we split it into three bands and entered all three fights that week. I wrote and sang our "Hold This For Me," which we entered as Youth.

Clarifications:
Usually, if I'm doing a collab with one person, we'll use both of our names and include "Featuring." This wasn't always true, so there have been exceptions.
If I'm working with two people, I use Jon Eric & Friends. I believe that the "friends" have been Spud, Reve, Glenn Case, and Signboy, and no one else. I might be forgetting someone.
If I'm working with three or more other people, we'll either make up a band name or use the IRC BFF moniker.

Questions:
I've also had entries which were credited to just me, even though there was some input from others. Are you keeping track of those?
Are you interested exclusively in Song Fight entries, or are side fights taken into consideration as well?

WOW, impressive.

There are some out there that I don't even remember. Not that I'm even reminded, I REALLY ACTUALLY DON'T remember the project. I'd have to look it up myself.

The only one missing is for obvious reasons. There is no reference to me at all.

Nipple Creek Fairies = Hoblit

I'm not sure I want to even admit that.

One more though that I am proud of:

Joblito = Hoblit

Wow man, keep up the good fight.

Niv's replies to Jon Eric are in blue.

Omissions:
I entered once as The Finches ("So Long, Atticus") Hmmm. I knew that one, just missed it.
I've entered a couple of times as Big Mistake ("A Variation on Two," "Bad Attraction") I'll add that on my next revision
I played in the IRC All-Stars once ("Need Stilts"), and in the IRC BFFs at least once ("Back from Juvie," though I think that may have been the only time). The IRC collabs are often hard to keep track of. I'll figure out all the participants one day.

Coma was my collaboration with Evermind ("Gonna Be Your Man").
I entered once as Jon of New Orleans, which was a collaboration with Jim of Seattle ("Brown Boxes"). How did I miss that?
There's an entry credited to Jon Eric feat. Eddiebangs ("House In My Head"). Did I get it on Eddie's
Pun in Tend was my collaboration with Freudian Slip ("Gallows Hill"). I knew there was another Freudian Slip one that I missed.
Shasta was my collaboration with Soda ("Field Day")
I played the piano in Dr. Atkins' 100% Natural Good-Time Family-Band Solution. ("Credible Threat") With who else?
Generic Sp00ns was my collaboration with @eclictic Sp00ns ("Sold Out")

Questions:

I'd like to thank my mom, for her constant inspiration and support. Should I put that in the filename? And my friend Ted who is an ornithologist, and helped clarify some things for my Feathers entry. And Venus and Serena Williams for whom Variation on Two was written. Then there's the Toronto Star, who published a story that inspired Twenty One. And George Bush... Are you getting all this?

Roy is being a dick again. Got it.

OK, would you believe that was my attempt at a compliment for taking this on? ...didn't think so...

But seriously...
-I did the "I'm Not Impressed" entry as Song Fight Orchestra. (which then opens up the whole Song Fight Orchestra, since Jim is the only other one credited)

Oh yeah, I was in that too. "Courage," I think.

That was a workplace-style dickmove, wasn't it.
Sorry.

One day I'll figure out all the participants of the SFO.
