I have added Mr. Trip's entry to the queue. Update yer playlists!

Thank you, M.

...where is this playlist you speak of?

Well, m'dear, you can listen one of two places:

or here, where you get all the text blah blah blah as well:

But OH SHIT I didn't update the M3u. I'll go do that right now.

Yeah, I need to JFDI but I want to do a good job of it and I just haven't had the time to. But with role models like Niveous and Eddiebangs, well...

Oh BLT, you reliable rat bastard. I had a feeling you wouldn't stiff anyone. First I was all then I was all and now I'm all .

Friggin great tune, man. Faithful enough to be recognizable, but still totally BLT in every way. Thank you.

Perhaps I'll take a stab at a stiffee request if I feel sass-ay. Just got laid off from my job, so it's not like I'll be lacking for time...

My pleasure, fine sir. And great use of your three smiley allotment. lol

By the way, BGM, you f**kin' nailed my GOM song. That is a great rendition of Sad Tomorrow! Such a good ol' song and your cover made it shine. Thanks you.

Thanks, BLT, glad you liked it.
Not a very imaginative interpretation on my part, I'm afraid.
I really, really liked that song (had never heard it before) and felt like I couldn't bring anything new to it because it was pretty great already.
I decided that I'd just have fun learning it and playing it. Thanks for introducing me!

With a borrowed laptop, I have finally finished my GM song and then did a song from someone else's list as well.

...And Niveous' entries are added!

Niveous,

Thanks for taking care of de-stiffing BBABM. I feel really bad about not being able to get to his stuff. The last couple weeks I've been having more problems that people are sick of hearing about, and today I had the worst anxiety attack I can ever remember having.

The last few months have been pretty terrible for me and I'm sory for not being able to fulfill my obligations to people.

(FWIW I was intending to a bluegrass cover of 'Jaked on Green Beers.' Hopefully I will still manage to do that someday.)

fluffy

awesome niv! so good! that song totally fits you. i had a feeling it was you or fluffy that had me, i assumed you would do this song, or fluffy would do the soul coughing song. just amazing. im going to see coheed & cambria next month, when i weasle my way back stage ill be sure to throw them the plug

Dude, don't sweat it. You're admin here and help out with so much stuff. Shiz happens.

edit: And no, I'm not being pragmatic. ....not intentionally anyway.

Niveous, thanks for "Rock Star"! great stuff!

so i said this... and caravan ray pm'ed me to say he'd like to do it too... and so we decided to cover the song after feb. well, j$'s gifter came through while we were working on it, but we decided to finish it anyway. and it took until now. but we are done!

Incray- "Outdoor Miner"

after we were almost done i was searching for something or other and found out that there's some crazy record company that put out an entire cd of covers of this one song... so there's 20-some existing covers of it, but hey! here's one more!

Awesome! Awesome!

Yeah I've got it. It's pretty much what you'd expect, most pretty good covers individually, gets a bit tiresome 12 songs in .... the Flying Saucer Attack version is pretty sweet.

j$

that is such a fun song to sing

i especially liked the part where you launched into beach boys mode near the end.

I am so so sorry for being a stiffer last GOM. I am ashamed of myself, I never thought I would be one of those.

I finally got around to finishing my assignment. It's not much but I hope it goes some way to making up for my failure.
Here is my version of "Beans and Cornbread" by Louis Jordan & The Tympany Five for Boffo Yux Dudes.

There may be a better way to notify BYD so they actually see this. Gimme a nudge if so. My board etiquette is rusty.

No worries. I'll tell Tom G of the BYD. I can get a hold of him right now.
