Hey, now there's a job for CorporalClegg and doubleohfive - come up with a list of band names, and we'll have a contest. OK, "left-outers", get to work!

Great. Already reduced to groupie. :o
 
Awesome. Glad I can help. I've been meaning to post a lot more around here, looks like I picked a good time/place to start!

Morning, Summer.

SUMMER
Groupie?

DEWEY
What's the matter ?

SUMMER
You want me to be a groupie?

DEWEY
Groupie is an important job.

SUMMER
I researched groupies on the Internet. They're sluts! They sleep with the band!

DEWEY
No. That's not true. They're like cheerleaders!

SUMMER
I don't want to be a cheerleader!

CC, if you wanna do something musical then pipe up, man! So to speak.

I thought I already did? :confused:

Ah, but you failed to take into account the fact that I have the attention span of a five year old. :D (I forgot what you had posted earlier, my bad!) :o

Yes, of course you're in on guitar or keyboard, depending on what we come up with and how it all works out.
 
Hey Shatna, I wasn't kidding when I said I'd been playing music for a long time. I'd like to hear the demo if I may. If you need my e-mail addy I can send a PM to you.

Serves ya right! :mad: :D


And what I meant by being left out is you could send Moi the demo and I, with my limited composition abilities, might even be able to help out. ;)

Email is in profile. :angel:

Don't worry about it, Shatna. I think everyone appreciates that certain allowances have to be made for the elderly.
 
I'm not trying to leave anyone out, honest - the song is at a "sketch" phase at this point, and a very rough one at that. My goal was to try to capture the feeling of what I have in mind, musically speaking, and not necessarily nail down an arrangment just yet. I sent it to coaster 'cause he's co-producer and to Aurian to give her an idea of what kind of range and style I have in mind. I'm hesitant about sending something that rough out to everyone because it may not be anything like what we end up with. I write songs the way I draw pictures, in that I do several sketches to get a feeling for where I want to go, and the demo is a very early part of that process.

Having said that, I'm PM-ing the link to hofner and CorporalClegg, because they asked.

See, PHJ you said that ^

I think you mean to say this:

You're like Mr. Mxyzptlk, disappearing for weeks and then popping up to cause Shatnaman trouble unexpectedly!

If I'd said that though, it would have caused Angry Angel to appear in a puff of smoke like a little motorbike-driving Dutch pixie. Besides which, I honestly think that Shatna's hair has more of an exploded squirrel look to it than a beaver one.

Oh, I'm around more often than that, it's just you're usually too busy stalking Kass to take notice.

*overdoze of snuggles to Shatna for the compliment ;)
He's right, though. :D

I'd love to be able to participate in this project (more trombone, bass, and low-end vox -- possibly arrangements) but I'm a bit technologically impaired, at this point (not to mention the fact that all of my instruments are currently in storage. :( )

You won't go away no matter what, we both know that. :p

Join the band-namers, lazy-ass!

So ehm ... why don't we call it ... left-out?

Anyway ... I was being a pain in the ass ... not a lazy-ass :p

I was thinking about doing some cover art ... you know for promotional purposes .. but I need a bit more info for that ;)

oh .. and wrt the name groupies ... if you seriously think that me and doubleoh are going to follow you around everywhere you go and cheer you on and faint in your presence like a bunch of hussies

then you are insane
 
Boy hofner’s “Clowns never laughed before…” remark didn’t fall far from the tree. :lol:

Sorry, I’ve just never been a big fan of the DAG thing, but I will work with it the best I can! (Positive attitude and all...)

One thing is, it needs some more color! There’s the obvious: throw in a 7th and +9th on the A turnaround. I’m also going to mess around with some variations on the B minor chord maybe a Minor 6th or mess around with some inverts.

The problem I see is there isn’t a lot of room for a good ol’ guitar melody aside from maybe some simple arpeggios, but I will see what I can come up with!
