Behind the scenes discussions going on in light of the Newsletter having gone out …

There may be a new, slightly amended announcement soon.

It most certainly will not rule anything out.

It may rule something new in.

Ah so I can rope in the missus. She'll be pleased she's been practising.....not enough. Better watch what i say if she's joining.

I did have another idea for a song when I thought I was collaborating. We can't enter two collaborations can we close?

ANNOUNCEMENT for OCT-NOV-DEC

For the final competition period of 2018 the competition is opened out in the following way:


For the first time the competition is not limited to single-person entries.
In fact the opposite.
We are looking for instrumental only recordings (no vocals required) that must be collaborations between two or more forum members.

Please record a tune / melody / song that is seasonal / festive and submit before the closing deadline of Sunday 16th December.



Entries must be a festive / seasonal / Christmas tune recorded as a collaboration between two or more forum members



And watch out for an announcement on some slightly different, cool and fab prizes. ;)


IMPORTANT UPDATE
1]

Vocals now allowed - instrumentals are still fine too.

2]

Deadline moved from 16th to 18th December.

3]

At least 2 of the entrants must be forum members, one of whom must have been a member before October 1st.

4]

Entries must be no more than 3 minutes in duration.


Ignore Rule 4 - that has now been lifted.


PRIZES

SKYPE sessions for more than just the 'winning entrants'.

Lots of desirable gear (which will likely include an amp, a guitar, songbook bundles and more.

At the end of my lesson with Justin, he popped out a "look forward to hearing you in the next Contest".  I said I was ineligible.  He said, well you can't win but you can participate.  But it being a collaboration complicates that "participating and not eligible to win" dynamic in my mind.

Richard, what's your take ... if somebody was looking for a collaborator and they were considering me (or vice versa) ... could they still be in contention while I am not?

I don't have anything specific in mind, just putting it out there ... same would go for other winners ... hmm, there's a thought ...

Pam/Max, did you have any thoughts/ideas?  Based on Justin's comment we could produce something and given we are all ineligible that being ion contention would be a non issue?

Oh holy mama … now you're asking the hard questions David !!!  :o :o :o :o :o ??? ??? ??? ??? ???

I will check with Justin.
I'm wondering if the rule book can be amended to accommodate previous winners this time due to the team nature of the collaboration.

Bear with me.

At least 2 of the entrants must be forum members, one of whom must have been a member before October 1st.
Quick question, as I would not want to 'disgruntle' anyone:

I unexpectedly teamed up with Fourtwo (Neil) the other day to enter the competition. We have been in touch and I have written what I reckon is the bulk of the lyrics along with the structure (Yay me! 8)); he will be looking after the production end (as well as everything else I can't do)
I have a good friend who lives nearby and plays guitar (competently). In fact, he suggested this website to me when I started out. He is not a member of the forum.
I would very much like to ask him to co-write the music with with me (Lennon/McCartney ;)). I think I would learn a lot, but more importantly, it would be good fun.
Who knows, we might even gain a new member to the forum?

I would do the vocals and we would both 'play' guitar and send it off to Neil.

Is that within (the spirit of) the rules?

Cheers

@ Brian.
Both you and FourTwo have been members from before the cut off point.
All is good.

Any female forum members like to add a vocal to a song that 2 forum members are collaborating on? It will be great fun.

If we don’t find anyone do the rules allow me to as my daughter in law?
