    Default Gather round, all musicians!

    Alright, I think it would be kind of fun if we had some sort of musical competition between the musicians here at EoFF. I was thinking that we could record something, and have non participants vote on what they thought were the best. It could be all just one big round, or we could have eliminations, and after every elimination the participants would have to record something new. This is just an idea right now, but I would really really REALLY like to see this turn into something more, and if this thread gets a good response, hopefully it will turn into something more. Anywyas, if you like this idea keep this thread going and we will see if this can actually become a reality.

    While I'd love to compete, I know I'm not really that good so I wouldn't do too well...

    Hey, that's no reason not to compete! I would bet that innovation would be out instrumental proficiency anyday (unless we have another Jimmy Hendrix here at EoFF, which is unlikely) What do you play?
    And I don't know if i made this clear or not, but anyone could enter with any type of instrument (that includes voices!).

    Flute and Piano, I'm better at flute but I'll bet my skill's really declined since I haven't had any band to play it in in awhile. My piano lessons also have ceased so I'm sure that one's going out too.

    That's cool. If this whole thing goes through I really would like you to participate. It would be nice to have other instruments than just guitars...

    I'll try. I don't have access to recording equipment, at least I don't think I do, but we'll certainly see. This is all original composition right?

    I suppose I could record myself playing the piano. It would have to be through a PC microphone though! O_o

    Ive yet to decide that. I do know for sure though, that you will be able to record you're own personal composition though. I however am still not sure whether or not to allow people to cover other songs (I personally was thinking about covering J.S. Bach's "Presto" from Violin Sonata #1 in G minor, except I would be playing it on my bass guitar) However, if enough people will it, we can have it as origional compositions only.

    That might be hard, I don't have any original compositions, but I'm up for a challenge. If it isn't original I'd probably play the "Song of Huma" which is featured in the Dragonlance series.

    Wow. It would be really awesome to hear some of the talent here at EoFF. Nice idea! I really hope you continue on with it.
    I'm not sure if I'd participate. I play Clarinet and Keyboard and a few other instruments I have no access ( damn you, band ).
    I suppose I could sing though. =/ Dunno. I'll think about joining though if you go further with this. If not, I'll certainly enjoy listening in!

    I'd sing and record something if it didn't, y'know, require effort.

    If you can find a way to record, than yes.

    The only problem im haveing with this whole thing is that Im not exactly sure how to get it started. Maybe i'll see if I can get a mod to help me or something.

    Yeah, I'd gladly do some tootling on my guitar.

    I reckon this would be a laugh, I'll keep my eyes peeled for details.

    I sing, but I don't have a mic right now. I'll get one soon though, after I get my new computer.
