Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.
Re: EET Week covers
I have a clear idea of what I want out of my cover. Unfortunately due to my lack of talent, the final product will likely fall short. Given my timing, I think I'll likely wrap up this Saturday.

Re: EET Week covers
Guys, I think something magical might be happening here.
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a rolling hoop
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a ton of lead
Wiggle - you can raise the dead
Pex Lives!

I believe so, too...Guys, I think something magical might be happening here.
Re: EET Week covers
I might be able to whip out a second one, let me see where we're at time-wise when I finish my current one.
That second one would be Three Card Trick, but if somebody else wants to do it, go ahead. Especially since I might not be able to get to it.

Re: EET Week covers
Does anyone have the busking version of Cool Under Heat at hand? Nowt on YouTube.
There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

Someone should do In the Pouring Rain.
Re: EET Week covers
Get VH to do a piano cover of This Is England since he has a good ear. Or another song with a competent melody. Or you could get VH Jr to do some Gallagher sons-esque covers.JennyB wrote:So how do I get involved? I don't want to miss out.

That'd be an homage within an homage. This would be the most dynamic tribute album ever.Flex wrote:If this happens, the song MUST MUST MUST be "Dirty Punk"matedog wrote:Or you could get VH Jr to do some Gallagher sons-esque covers.
