The Song Fight Bulletin Board

Caravan Ray wrote:Ok - let me be the fist to apologise to my gifteee.

This song was way beyond my level of musical competency - but I reckon I gave it a fair crack. I hope you realise how much it pained me to go beyond the sort of 3 chord songs I am comfortable with. THough I did all I could to drag this song down to my level.

It's a cover, not a copy ~J$ 2012

Whelp, I may have to be late for the first time, but the hope is that the lateness will ameliorate some suckage problems.

It's plodding on its way to finished-ness, in any case.

Done, done, done. My usual collaborator and fine friend Andy Balham has added some acoustic colour to an otherwise electronic monstah. I may send a link to my giftee tonight and they can choose whether or not they listen now or on the 25th. I am very bad at keeping secrets.

I dunno, Niv. What do you think? You laid down 1/25 as the due date, but of course, nobody will be done.

Let's push the deadline out to 2/10. As of 2/10, all songs we have submitted will be published for review. Winners will have a donation made in their name or their band name to the Memorial Sloan Cancer Center, courtesy of my company, Video Streaming Services, LLC.

First place - $150 donation
Second place - $100 donation
Third place - $50 donation

Cheers,
Mike Lamb

Where should I send the MP3 / link? I don't see the address in the thread, but I am skimming at high speed, so apologies if it is in fact blatant.

I am 99% done.

But if there is more time - I guess it can always have more guitars \m/

Don't we usually push the date back on the day the songs are due so that people like me don't get procrastinatey?

Where to send the songs: iamniveous AT gmail
As for the due date, I'll go with Mike's call on this one and say 2/10 is the closer. No songs accepted after that day.

Awesome! I was logging in to beg for an extension, and there it is without even asking. The Song Fight! gods are on my side this time.

I'll still try to get mine done this week so I don't interfere with attempting FAWM.

I can procrastinate? Awesome! But seriously, this works out really well. Dog bites set me back a couple weeks, not to mention... procras... screw it, I'll type the rest tomorrow.

I've had most of mine done for a while, but It took me forever to record vocals I was happy with. Finally found the right combination of voice processing to make my voice sufficiently hard for me to recognize... and it's in!

Mixin' n' mailin' tomorrow. I will not be late. EVER!!! Unless something bad happens. pleaseohpleaseohplease don't let anything bad happen. To me or any of you either.

Mine's in. I hope my giftee likes it.

MIne's in. I know my giftee likes it

recording this afternoon. i will be in!

I took Cray's advice and added more guitars. Definitely an improvement. I plan to master and submit tonight.
Hmm, "master" and "submit" makes it sound like some sort of S&M thing. Ouch!

I submitted!
Thanks to the extension I didn't stiff!

I submitted!
Thanks to my extension I am totally stiff!
I'm not touching the next line.

GoM 2012-2013 is nearly at the deadline. All songs must be in on 2/10.

Ours will be in tomorrow, come hell or high... snow.
