The loose theme is "1980's" although we've decided that can include any song recorded before Nirvanas Nevermind was released :embarrassed:

Have the songs to me by September 22nd and the reveal is September 23rd!
 
Question - Do we need to claim a song so someone else doesn't do the same song?

You could always mention it if you think there's a chance it will happen....I don't see a problem with multiple versions of the same song if you don't anyway :)
 
Slow thread is slow :embarrassed:

I'll be submitting at least 2 songs in addition to the big Whitesnake collab :love:

Both being among my all time favourite songs :thu:
 
I have a leftover collab with Micwalt that I'll probably be finishing for this as well...its from 1970, though :embarrassed:
 
I should probably think about doing something for mine.

Hey Mark, I've got Dex's drums and Mike's bass part. Do you need me to mix those together so you can do the guitar tracks or are you going to be able to do that and then just send me the guitar tracks when they are done?

What I'm really asking is, are you waiting for me, or am I waiting for you? :embarrassed:

oops....I didn't realize I was in the hotseat...I'm not sure I have all of the parts....I just cleaned my mailbox and I think I screwed up and erased them just now :facepalm: Can you send them to me and I can get started?
 
I have an 80s tune that could uses some drums (before I program them) toss it out there for our drummers. PM me if interested.

I can't right now, but I'll try to get the drums and bass mixed in the next day or two and send that to you. :embarrassed:
 
Progress report: :embarrassed:

Well, we've got another really short and rather strange tune on the go..surprise, surprise :lol:...I've got most of the music sorted, but Lisa is still working on the tune/lyrics..I think we'll be ready, we've both got some time off coming up..so hopefully nail it all down then.
 
I scrapped the original one I was working on temporarily... the arrangement I was working on just wasn't happening, so I moved on to something I started working on for an HC 80's Coverfest ins '07, but never finished. :facepalm:

Bounced out all the files from Sonar and imported them into Logic. There are a couple of glitches and artifacts, but nothing too bad. I'll definitely need to re-record the bass line, I still need to do pre-chorus guitars, and cut vox.

Time permitting I'm going to finish ANOTHER cover I started in '07 and never finished... it came out in '88 but mine is more a cover of a cover with alt.country spin. If I don't get it done in time for the Coverfest I'll post it anyway, because I've forgotten how excited I was about that track.

Where are you guys all at? :)
 
I'm exactly where I was last time I checked in.

I did mix Dexter's drum track and Micwalt's bass track and sent them to Mark. That's as far as we've gotten so far.

I'm in the hot seat for RonK right now, and plan to get his drums recorded tomorrow evening, as I should have some free time.

Haven't even given thought to starting a solo entry yet.
